silver

sH3RlZikpmE I went into the forest close to a location that I've been hunting a lot. This was the first signal i got within 2 minutes of detecting! I searched for about 2 more hours, but i found nothing other than rifle casings and rusty nails. The location nearby used to be a gathering...

Got out for a couple hunts this weekend and found a silver coin at each one. I will admit that these were like hunts 9 and 10 for the year, so it's not like I am finding tons of silver but I will certainly take it when I find it. From the postings it looks like folks are generally off to great...

Hey everyone, I started metal detecting about a year ago with an ACE 250. I would get out at least every other weekend and put in a healthy amount of time digging. I was discouraged to not find any silver. This year i upgraded my coil from stock to the 9x12 and have found two wheat pennies in 2...

I found a 1786 Spanish colonial silver coin on my property today. I am fairly new to detecting and I am not sure if this is a rare find or not. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and happy hunting!

Hi all, I found this pin on a dirt access road that runs parallel to railroad tracks that were put in early in the 20th century. It would be nice to know what d.g.s. means for sure. department of geological survey is the best I could figure and it would be nice to know what the owl represents...

I went to check out a new spot yesterday and came up with what I think is my finest silver find in 35 years of detecting. Yes, I did find a sterling knee buckle last year that is more historically significant, but not nearly as beautiful as this piece. I was hunting a pounded school yard looking...

Today i went out back and found some junk, 11 wheats, some clad, my 3rd war nickel!! 1943s! a cool button! and a .925 cross!! yeah more silver!

Hey guys these are my Gold and Silver finds that i have found around my house on fort lewis. i found the Vernon silver plated spoon yesterday! cleaned up real nice! thanks for looking!

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...

Today I went detecting in a field in front of my house where a house used to be over a hundred years ago, I didn't get to stay out long but I managed to find some interesting things and I'll definitely be going back tomorrow! Finds: -Handle of a silver spoon -Eagle (found the broken wing about...

Hello all! I'm 4 months into the hobby and 7 silver rings, 2 silver medallions, 1 tungsten carbide wedding band and about $50 in clad richer (1 wheaty). I've been hitting the tot lots and old parks to learn my machine and the hobby. So far, I've learned that doing your homework pays off...

Treasures found in NE Florida

Hi All. I’m brand-spanking new here and excited to get into metal detecting. Instead of the standard hellos, I thought I’d start off with my newbie story… I am new to metal detecting and I just bought my first metal detector. I did some research on metal detectors and decided to jump into...

Went out to a remote cornfield with my new 6x8" SEF coil on my V3i, and found it performed beautifuly with my new Roman Coin program. Tucked away between the many iron trash artifacts, I came across this lovely coin: Antoninus Pius. (138-161 AD). Silver denarius. Minted in Rome between...

Today was a pretty good day... Found my first silver coins! As you can see one is a 3 cent piece and the others are dimes.

Hello, I have recently gotten the Minelab E-trac. May I say this machine is definitely my favorite, it has gotten me several wheaties, and other cool finds. Now I have never found any silver, not with any of my machines, except one 1907 Barber Dime in a farm that had an old school house at one...

Of the following, which one would be best V3i coil for thin and tiny medieval silver hammered coins in Europe? These are about 2 to 3 cm wide, and very thin. Often they are in ancient fields that have a lot of small iron trash too. I have found that only the high frequencies detect them well...

Took my usual lunchtime break at my 'claim' on the old base housing area. Decided to go back and grid one of the earlier sites, and it paid of well. First signal was a wheat at three inches, and I managed a total of 5 in the 45 minutes I had to get geared up, hunt and break back down. As...

So far the old base housing has been kind to me, and it keeps giving! Pulled my fifth silver dime on site yesterday, along with 5 wheats. In the past week I have found nearly 40 wheats, the silvers, my first token, a large penny from Australia and one metal play coin on this site. Can hardly...
