Hey everyone, Im new to the forum. Ive been detecting for about 6 months now and have been meaning to join but ive been staying busy at work and swinging my detector as often as possible lol. Anyway i thought i would share some of the finds me, my girlfriend and another buddy of mine found this weekend. We hit up 3 old local elementary schools, one has been open since 1922 and is still in use, the other since 1908 but has been retired and remodeled into a nursing home. Not quite sure how old the other is but its closed down completely. Friday we hit the youngest of the 3, Saturday we hit the oldest of the 3 and today we hit the one thats stull in use and this was what we found...
Fridays finds:
1957 wheatie, 1963 nickel, 1965 dime, misc other clad, and a 1986 hot wheels ferrari testarossa!
Saturdays finds:
6 wheat pennies and a near mint 1944 mercury dime
Sundays finds:
13 wheat pennies, 1968 canadian penny, 1880 indian head penny, ulysses s. Grant commemorative token, namco arcade token, around $5-6.00 in clad. 1941 silver mercury dime, other misc items
hope to find some more goodies tomorrow. Currently im swinging a Pioneer 505 and my girlfriend was swinging a BH Quicksilver. My friend Jason was swinging his new Garrett AT Pro. Sadly the Quicksilver has found more silver than both of our higher priced machines lol. She found the 41 merc today but I found the 44 yesterday. She also found a 54 silver rosie dime at the same school we hit today a couple of weeks ago but she was using my 505 at the time. Well just thought i would share some of our finds from the last couple of days and see what everyone else was digging up!
