Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me? I have lost a necklace containing a 20 franc necklace whilst on holiday in France, near Perpignan. Sadly I had to go home, but have pinpointed a location it is most likely to be. Is anyone near this area that would be able to look for it with a metal...

Hello! Had a interesting morning. Have had a of of rain recently, with a lot of erosion occurring in the front yard. Not only do we live on a hill that has previously been landscaped a total of 3-5 feet of digging to lessen the steep grade, but it's also right by a known river that a Indian...
Back to the civil war encampment north of Atlanta today. Found this carved lead bullet. I guess it is either a pendant or a fishing weight.
longer than a miniball but I guess they could have hammered it longer and carved it.
Any ideas?
This small tray caught my eye at the Publix grocery store a few days ago. They were a couple of larger sizes also available. Square firm plastic tray with soft rubber coating on the inside bottom. The small slightly raised "dots" are exactly 1/2 inch apart making it great for size reference...
Remember Bill Murry’s obsession with the gopher in the Caddyshack movie? Well that is me with a certain elusive mole in my small newly sodded back yard for the past year. Ok you guys in the country don’t laugh at my little one third of an acre lot. I have tried smoke bombs, grub killer spray...

Just Getting back into metal detecting (Maple Valley WA)
I've had a metal detector moving up on my priorities list for many years now. 20 years ago I was an avid prospector and metal detector. Things changed.
Just did a road trip with my boy to CA and back. On the way home we stopped at a car...
I was eating at burgerking with my friend and I decided to buy a apple pie. Well, I looked at the dates of the coins I got and luckily enough I saw the letter 'S' under the 1970!!!! What a rare find it was for me all I got in the past was from Denver!!! :)
Hi all, I found this little earring yesterday on a Boston north shore beach yesterday. It was so small that my pinpointer (Garrett Pro Pointer AT) was having some difficulty regularly finding it in the sand. It was intermittent like a small piece of foil. Imagine my surprise when a diamond...
Hey Guys, So went out hunting for the first time this year on Sunday 2/28. Finally the ground out here in New Hampshire is finally starting to thaw! I figure I would go out for a quick hunt and see how the conditions turned out. There are two old schools nearby. One, an elementary school...
Have y'all ever found a point that was broken and then found the other half nearby? I ask because a lot of what I find (especially in plowed fields) have been broken and I'm wondering if it's even worth looking around in the same area for the other piece?
Found these items today in the same general location. I think they are definitely colonial, but leave it to the experts. A Union camp was nearby as was a colonial village.
Thank you in advance!
Here is the link to photos. Both items appear to be iron...

I went out to metal detect around an old House.
I didn't find anything interesting as I hoped for, only cans and scrap metal.
But then I dig one signal and I was right about to start searching through the plug when I realised there was a spider on it.
I never knew spiders were made of metal...

I found this rock in a creek whilst panning for gold. Can anyone tell me what it is? I think the center is garnet but I'm no geologist. It's very heavy for the size, thanks!
I found this on my second outing with my AT Pro I just bought. I thought it was scrap when i first pulled it out, but after cleaning it today I realized it was made of copper and looks to be old. I found it at an old home site next to a lake in PA. It has a decorative edge and on the sides has...
Just got back from vacation in Mexico. After leisurely hunt, $25 in coins (they use and lose a lot of 10-pesos coins there, roughly $1 each), a set of hoop earrings (amazingly, found both earrings in the water, within one foot of each other), an old toy soldier (gave it to the local), and my...
