Metal detecting finds

Hello again all. I thought i'd show some of my follow up finds of a recent dig. About a week ago I took a drive and hit up a field that was rumored to have a old mom and pop general store that was tore down back in the 40's. Well I found a 1884 V nickel the first time around but it was a very small area I could detect in. I was told by the owner that I could come back and detect again because they were removing the overgrown area to make way for a house they are building for their son. I went and helped out and im tired as heck but it produced this so far. I think I will take pics of the land I am detecting the next time they are working on it so you can see the struggle lol.

Nice finds. Keep looking, I want to see more.

 

I've got 2 more dollar coins that are not pictured. The last one is a nice AU James Madison

 

oops

 

Here's some jars of coins. The pennies I have spent $56.

 

Silver and 2 golds.

 

@Michael K what the hell did that have to do with my post other than hijacking it??

 

Sorry I was very tired when I posted last. Are these your detecting finds?

 

Yes I thought that's what this was sharing photos of detecting finds.
If you want this all to yourself I will go away now.

 

nah your good. I had a few drinks and was really tied so I didnt realize that my thread header just said metal detecting finds and you didnt say that those were detecting finds so I thought you were just posting random stuff....my bad. Post away.

 

This is a pic of the area I am detecting. I'm surprised I found a old photo of where im detecting. Years go by right?

 

Don't drink and Cointalk!
Can I post some Metal Detecting finds?
My last 6 hour beach detecting hunt

 

Wow PAddyman, you found that in six hours! I've tried beach hunting in Ocean City MD and so far have found all of two quarters. Any clues to help me? I have a Minelab XTerra 305 if that helps.

 

hey it was a simple case of misunderstanding and after a nap I realized my mistake and apologized. There are some that are on here that must be buzzed all the time . Nice score by the way.

 

My favorite finds
A William III halfpenny and an intact colonial shoebuckle. Both were ironically found on the 4th of July.

 

Paddyman98 !Can you pl. post photograph of your metal detector also?

 

Sure.. AV Minelab CTX 3030

 

I prefer Whites.

 

What's about Garrett?
These are very popular in Germany.
And Fisher, too.

 

Garrett, Whites, Fisher and Minelab are all excellent. Each has a specific build and preferences that detectorists prefer and the prices are a consideration also. My Minelab CTX 3030 is probably the most expensive.
