    Why do you hurt?
    I was big into detecting but marriage, kids and arthritis took that away.
    I still have 7 detectors no one uses.
    If you are persistent, you will find good things.
    I have found a lot of silver over the years. Wheaties, foreign silver, dollar coins and some weird stuff. Brass knuckles, Chuck E Cheese tokens, etc.
    I have even found gold, although it was a small piece of 10k kids jewelry.
    Metal detectors are programmed for coins, and react most strongly to silver and copper.
    Less so to gold and things like stainless steel and nickel.
    For whatever reason, gold is not very reactive to metal detectors. I tried them with a fairly large gold chain and the response was weak.
    Your best bet if you want to find gold is to dig everything. Lots of small rings, especially the diamond solitaires, are quite small.
    What kind of detector do you have? How long have you been detecting?

    70 in Michigan and in the 50's in Pennsylvania. Oh well, hope you enjoy it. I was in Michigan a number of years ago. In August no less. I was freezing and all the locals were complaining about the heat wave. It was over 60 for 3 straight days. Yes, it was upper Michigan.

    Nice haul, certainly better than the last one. lol

    You have too much life ahead of you to let pain slow you down. Whatever is slowing you down, have a word of prayer with your doctor. Tell him you are too young to be slowed down and to get you fixed!

    Yeah I have she just put me on muscle relaxers. I don't. Like them. They make me too drowsy and I don't like to be drowsy I have stuff to do through out the day to be tired.when I get free time I do this for about an hour is all I can take or just relax. yesss I have back problems and my feet kill me after just an hour and there is nothing my doctor can do for it. I take Ibuprofen. It takes half of it away and yes i am too young to have it.. i even have arthritis I inherited it from my mom way too early. But what can I do? Just sit down and do nothing the rest of my life? What my doctor will say but not in that way lol I got to just keep moving forward and take the pain. Oh well.
