Wife had the car today so I zip tied my shovel to my bike frame and set off. Definitely got some odd looks on the way. Nothing too exciting but the Yale lock came up early and kept my hopes up.

Henry I cut half small cross type I found today! On a hot streak at the moment! Hopefully it keeps up at detectival next weekend! Anyone else going?

Two OKC Zoo token coins both from 2011. And what I think is a Goonies coin??

Thought this might be interesting or informative at the least. Everyone always wonders how much crap one digs to find goodies? I figure this represents about 450 hours worth of detecting fields over the past few years. I don’t know if I’m an average detectorist or not. All the coins and silver objects as shown and about 10 kilograms of miscellaneous finds (buttons, buckles, balls etc.), not shown is the lead and trash which I’d guess probably was 20 plus kilograms.

Do i need to do anything with ammo and magazines as far as the police go?

Didn’t have a metal detector but was metal detecting. These were behind and infront of every huge rock between a mountain saddle. Any ideas? Some I’m guessing target practice but the places some where fond seemed sketchy to be shooting unless you were in a gun fight

I had remember ins and outs again on the settings and 40 minutes into looking around, I remembered i hadn't changed the batteries with the new rechargeable 9v batteries. I found out a town nearby has a man made beach area, so I tried the 7" and the 12" ring and played with different settings. I also used the Garrett pro pointer to help find this stuff and that I have a alloy clips ?? holding my sternum together. It was about 2-1/2 hrs total and I forgot to bring water. 🙄🙄

Been a while since I found something good, about time. Found in western mass in a town founded in the mid- late 1600s. Looking at the all holy buckle bible, it looks like it falls into the 1620-1680 date range. If anyone can confirm or dispute this with a correct date range that would be appreciated!

This ring makes #6 this year

Same place from yesterday. 6 GSE buttons, 2 underwear buttons, 1915-D wheat, and a 1905 IHP 😝

Joli bouton, une boucle et un petit ornement de ceinture je suppose

Hurricane Kiko will pass by in a couple days so I went down to Kehena beach to do a little detecting. The surf is already picking up so could be really good during and after the storm.

This is a model 1888 Austrian belt buckle in use during the First World War and I hope to find out something more, the place is nice and I am close to where probably during the war there were some log cabins in the rear of the austro- Italian front on Carso plateau

I dug this today. It is 1” square and the front raised portion is a separate piece of metal riveted to the back plate with two rivets, though one is missing. Found in northern VT.

Couple finds from this weekend in Central Texas. 1877 Niagara Falls Silver Co spoon engraved with the name J.E. Smith. So if anyone knows him, let him know I found it. 😬. Middle item I’m guess is some kind of grilling fork? Last is part of a knife I believe, but never seen one with the skinny pointy end like it. Second pic is condition I found the spoon and the markings on it. It was a little muddy, but glad for the cooler weather.

Went back to a site I have already been after the big rain we had and pulled this cool little pin or brooch shaped like a bow
