Metal Detecting discussions and finds

Very shallow. Less than 2". I almost missed it baccause there was a small nail right next to it. Great audio signal, but iffy numerical read out.

 

Btw, if you ever do find their relatives, don't forget to take your finds!!!

 

Huh. Wonder how many people passed it by thinking it was a nail? Or was this still privateland?

 

That Sanborn map link I posted above has links to others from all over the states, worth looking at to see where the old buildings used to be by type... may help your searches.

 

Interesting

 

i like old bottles too. I havent found much very old but still neat

 

Have you seen this?

I dont think i have, looks interesting, thanks!

 

Private land!

 

I have a feeling that there hasn't been too many detectors used in this area. Alot of detectorists would be quickly put off by the amount of iron trash in the ground. In fact, I have to be in the right frame of mind to deal with it.

 

This is spot on! I can tell that you "get it".

 

PM sent.

 

Alright Ladies and Gentlemen, it's time for YOU all to post up YOUR finds! I have been perhaps a bit overbearing, showing a bunch of pic's of some recent finds.

It's your turn to show us what you have found. It doesn't have to be super old or valuable. Just something interesting that you have found last week or last decade. What have you got??

 

I wanna know too!

 

Im trying to load todays finds

 

Found some pennies, quarter, 2 dimes, and first ring...looks like black painted stainless

 

Ring was right on top

 

Very cool! What kind of ring is that?

 

Mens black painted, i assume stainless

 

That's cool. I have found one ring, el-cheapo costume jewelry. It does fit my pinkie, though.
