metal detecting

Hey everybody, I'm curious as to how you all deal with these shenanigans. You're out driving around, looking for likely locations for old homesteads. As you approach, you see the GIGANTIC OAKS, an old Chimney but nothing else, old fence posts, etc. You think to yourself, "THAT'S THE SPOT!" You...

Hello Everyone! Back in the Saddle! :boots: In this weeks hunt we found a lot of silver and probably the oldest coin ever video recorded in Washington State... maybe. We're talking foreign 1600's mintage! The Pacific Northwest monsoons have started. :toothy2: In fact, the lights are blinking...

So today I went out detecting in the morning on a site i've been on once before and it is quite close to me in the middle of the woods. It's quite nice cause you never stumble across a human when you detect here... so I detected for three hours pulling up a couple of nice finds: An nice late...

Fist time with a metal detector!

She's a beauty..

I found this shell while detecting in the woods. Can anyone guess a rough age? There doesn't appear to be anything written on this one.

back to my copper field old relics and surprise for me..

Maybe a buckle or latch?

The old cornfield was cut went up to check it out and had a hard time.

I went to a public beach near a Coast Guard station 10 minutes down the road to metal detect there with my Garrett Ace 250 again... I found 7 different lead fishing weights/sinkers, a modern quarter and a 1959 memorial penny, some trash, and the stuff pictured below My dad believes these are...

I LOVE METAL DETECTING BUT WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO FIND PEOPLE TO HUNT WITH I FEEL LIKE IT WOULD BE MORE FUN TO BE ABLE TO GO HUNTING WITH SOMEONE THEN ALONE. ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREAT I LIVE IN DIXON, IL.

I was wondering if old houses in the country turn out much silver and good finds or if i should stick to old homes in town i got a permission from a family friend the house is at least over a 143 years old because i found the house on a 1874 map but the house is all by itself in the country with...

So, Iv'e dug many bullet casings while metal detecting most of them are post 1950's and I know that they are just worth the scrap value. But Iv'e also dug many bullet casings from early 1900's to 1950's and I wonder if they have some monitary value. Iv'e dug many readable dates casings from...

Hello Forum! Last weekend our metal detecting group hunted an old train station in the Pacific Northwest. We recovered lots of silver, along with trade tokens and relics related to the railroad. A coin from the mid 1870's was found along with several foriegn coins and multiple indians. Lots of...

Today I went out on a spot I usually go to to metal detect. It's a bit difficult to get to the spot by boat and some walking. The spot is an early 1900's hunting spot and an abandoned field. So first of by some Stone Walls I found my first ever Lead Back Seal: Then I walked along some kind of...

Found my first silver Quarter :) 1944 washington silver!

Hello all! After detecting an old cellar hole site in rural NY (which I think it may be 1750s - 1800s), I came across this dome button. Now, I really know nothing about buttons, and I think I ought to learn something about them. Anyway, what would you say the date on this one is? It is marked...

Found this 1892 V Nickel at a local park thats been hammered over the years guess it was my lucky day :)

Hey y'all. New to the forum here, started filming and uploading my outings to Youtube a few months back. If anyone is interested I do find a decent amount of neat stuff including Gold and Silver. I spend a fair amount of time editing the videos to cut out the blah for a good flow and easy...

So yesterday I was detecting and got a very good copper/bronze signal 8 inches down. Dug down about 9 inches in 30 minutes until I saw the edge of an object I tried to get it out but then I gave up and after some time to convince me to get it out I tried and it took me an hour to finally unearth...

I am a newbie to the craft, however I have found myself completely in love with the hunt. I was searching to see if there are anyone near me. I would love to join a club and gain some experience. I have been metal detecting for about a month. I have logged about 60 hours thus far. I learning...

Dear Treasure Net, Anyone have the gold or silver fever? Well the doctor's in the house! I'm Dr. Detector, an amateur hoping to uncover some remarkable finds underneath planet Earth. On 7/9/17, I received the Garrett Ace 300 as a birthday gift for my 23 birthday. Mother Nature does not want me...

So, a week ago I found my first buckle, a quite large and heavy (46.5 g) buckle: It wasn't quite deep because of the very hard soil. I think the pin in the buckle is made out of iron and the buckle itself is made out of copper or bronze. I also think it's of a horse strap. I'm not familiar...

Does anyone know what this is? I'm 99% sure it's from World War 2. I found it at sandbridge beach Virginia (in VA beach). P.S. It's made of copper if you didn't already figure it out. (Not sure why my pics are sideways.)

I'm going to buy an Garett AT Pro soon, so when I'm gonna buy it, I will probably buy it with a larger coil. But if you want to have a smaller coil on it sometime when your out metal detecting can you put on an smaller coil from my Garett Ace 250 on the AT Pro? Thank you

Yesterday I found a musket ball: And today I found a possible musket ball: They are made of led and the first one weighs about 12 grams and the second one about 5-6 grams. So I want to know how much mine are worth. Thank you
