    Hello everyone,
    Saturday I did a 3 hour Metal Detecting trip again at Brooklyn's Prospect Park.

    I found a neat Silver War Nickel
    1944 S

    I also found this old Hand Bell with the clapper still attached. Made Italy is the only marking that I found.

    @paddyman98 Considering the damage done to the steel skeleton key, would it be possible that those others are old brass cabinet keys? I purchased a jar full many years ago but most of mine had markings. I don't see you showing any here. Just curious.

    Hi Pam.. Welcome to one of my Metal Detecting threads. I have dozens of them!

    I have 4 Metal Detectors. My favorite machine is made by a company called Minelab.

    The model is the Vanquish 440. Excellent for silver and clad.
    Price? $279.00 :wideyed:

    The 4th picture is a moving GIF

    Thank you so much! When I saw the ships appearing from the low levels of the Mississippi, I said to myself, “paddy man would have a field day”. Awesome! Thanks again. Appreciate it. I did see this brand. I really think I would enjoy it.
