    Beach gold, silver and 2 personal firsts!

    Took advantage of a nice spring day in Western NY a couple weeks ago and found this 14K ring ( not sure if the stones are real, I need to have it looked at) and a personal 1st with a 1898 Barber dime. The ring was basically a surface find in about 10" of water and the Barber was a few inches...

    3 Barber Day!

    It's dreadfully hot here in upstate NY, so the motivation to go out and fry in a hay field is not very appealing right now, even if freshly cut. I went door knocking and found an old house with a large woods area that use to be an early 1800's farm field, all in the shade. I decided to detect...

    First Barber

    I found my first Barber Dime. I was swinging my Garrett AT Pro at an old house site that I had gained permission to hunt. I found some junk and a few wheats when I got a solid 82 signal. I dug down about 6 inches and I saw a glimpse of silver. Thinking I found a Rosie, I was shocked when a...

    Damn Kids......

    ... So, I haven't even gotten out at all yet, but my 7 year old boy has been sitting with his machine and coat on here in NY waiting for a chance to finally conquer the rain, sleet, snow and mud in our yard. Last night he asked if he could take his detector out and I responded " Of course, Bud...

    The story of Jack TOEB

    The Christmas story of Jack, the one eyed barber. Down on South Portland Avenue, in Oklahoma City, was the Sunday Barbershop. The name came about because the proprietor, Jack, who had lost an eye in the distant past, was not a union barber. He kept his shop open on Sunday and Monday, when all...

    Dime Quadfecta! (kind've)

    8-29-2015 On a windy and grey Seattle day, my dad and I started at 11am and caught the end of low tide. The wind was howling and the raindrops felt like zincolns falling from the sky. Regardless, we dashed out of the car ready to dig pirate booty. The VERY FIRST target I dug was a barber...

    3Khz Coil Kills it!

    Went out for about 45 minutes after work to hit a yard of a house built around 1910; have hit a few Indians and Wheats but otherwise it is a totally dead yard; or so I thought. Decided to try out the new 3 KHz Xterra coil I just got and it's nuts! I've read reviews that it's a coin monster...

    2 barber quarters same yard 5 years apart

    5 years ago I found a 1916 quarter near the front porch. The day before yesterday, I located a 1903 in nearly the same spot. I use the V3i with the 4x6 shooter.:yes:

    First and second hole by the lake :)

    So I grab my new Delta 4000 and after a few days of hunting in Ohio, I zoom up to my sweet little cabin in Central Michigan. It is set nicely on a little 80 acre peaceful lake, only a few other cabins around. I am not sure about the history of this area, and since it is a fairly remote area...
