Metal detector finds

Well I find a lot of junkers, but the stainless steel ones are usually well crafted. The tungsten rings are really nice.

well I hit 40,almost half my goal.alot of the cents were all in the same area,like someone threw a bunch in the air. I really didn't like this place I'm on the look out for another good spot.

 

It's a lot of work. It's not for everybody.
But I have fun with it. Most times. Today was fun.

 

It was so humid today I had to drink alot of fluids lol. I broke my best dig tool,hurt my toe and cut my hand, but all in all I had fun. I got out in the sun got to walk and found some buried cash. Ive been rolling all my finds,i m saving for a new rig. I cant wait.

 

I go early. When it is light out, but before the sun comes up. It's nice and cool, and not too many people out. Dog walkers usually. One time I was digging a hole and a dog ran over and started digging in the hole with me, and he popped out a dime.
When there are a lot of people out, they want to jabber about the detector and it just kills my time, and if there are a lot of kids out I can't search where they are playing, and the detector is a kid magnet. They are constantly asking you questions and stuff, which is fine but I have stuff to do.
Today I was out from 5:30-8:30. And Sundays are quieter here than Saturdays. Although the parks here don't open until 6:00. I have found stuff in the dark, because I rely more on sound, and often there's a big streetlight anyway.

 

I know what you mean about kids,there a little park in my apartment building real nice. I go there sometimes when it's late and the kids are inside. But one time a little girl came out and was putting her hand in my hole "helping" me dig. I was using a sharp tool and I had to keep moving,i didn't want to chop this little girls finger off. I just said well im tired im going in. Everywhere i go the people always ask me what did you find today lol.

 

I am the pkacepi went to was swamped and you can see it in the coins. It always turns the dimes red.

 

The ring with the stone is stamped THAILAND which can be silver, but it looks plated. The gold ring is stamped COP which is a local maker in Albq. The other ring has a parrot perched.

 

I thought that was a broken tine lol,i m still looking for the good spots to hit,i did a little test on a place it it turned out ok, I think I'll go back.

 

This was my Saturday hunt.i did really well at this spot,and I only did like a quarter of the place. Going back tomorrow. I've been looking for a good spot,that's why I haven't breb around. Still looking for #The Dollar Kid!

 

Lot of rain here, a number of places were flooded out. I'll see if I can get anything tomorrow.

 

Well that rain should help that cement you call ground lol,good luck Mike.

 

Don't get any better with age.........I assume you're in for the 'long haul' brother.

 

When there's just a little rain, it helps because it creates a halo affect around the coins with the detector. Most of the places I am hitting, when I have to dig it's not bad. I just avoid where I have to remove and replace sod. Most playgrounds have wood chips, a few have sand, and the targets are often in there, not buried. And even if they are buried below that top layer, the soil there is softer and easier to dig then the baked cement dirt in other areas.

 

Only had a couple of weak hunts this year and this was one of them. Was hoping the little ring was stamped. DENIED.

 

Thanks. That was fun

 

Yes,I enjoyed these very much! Some of these inspired me to keep digging when I was getting fed up lol. Mike has kept me going too. It's just so much fun!

 

Today's little hunt,only about 30 minutes.

 

Popped a half dollar today at my local park down the street. Photos tomorrow after my regular Sunday scrounge.

 

Now go out there and find that buffalo nickel to round it off
