silver

I started metal detecting in early March 2013 and have gotten one silver dime after a week of metal detecting, None since. I metal detect almost everyday for at least two hours. I just got a Fisher F2 as a upgrade to my Bounty Hunter Pioneer 202 so hopefully my luck will change. Good luck,

Teddy Roosevelt campaign fob, Huge Moose Lodge silver ring (9 grams) old melted marble and 5 wheats: 1913, 1920, 1939 & some 40's. I hunted for 2 hours finding only a couple wheats and then found the silver ring at about 7". I stood up swung my coil to the right about a foot and found the fob at...

I just got the Fisher F-2, and I was wondering what war nickels ring up as on it (VDI and item ID. I do not have any war nickels, but I do have pages of BU 90% silver coins :happy3: . Thanks.

I mean this in a good way! Today in New Hampshire, it was too hot to swing a detector, so I decided to try something that came to me one day while thinking of new treasure hunting techniques. Well, today, I tried it on a hunch and it paid off IMMEDIATELY and I ended up with $19.48 in clad coins...

Hunted some yards today with my new detecting friend T. Jason Wright from Greenwood. managed to find a lead policeman toy (1930's?) 1918-S Wheat cent (which is one I needed) and a sterling silver ring. The ring has already found a home on my fiance's finger.

Today I found my first silver while metal detecting. I have been detecting in a park near where I live for the past few days and have only found pennies and a clad Texas quarter. But tonight, I found a 1946 Roosevelt dime. I do not own a pinpointer, so I had to use the pinpointing feature on my...

Jewelry 1800's Nickle Silver Engraving Circles and Curves I have no idea what I found. It is made of nickle or silver with engraved circles and curves. It is a piece bent and broken from the main part which makes its identification difficult. I found it in Southwest Kansas along the Santa Fe...

So I have found what I think is a pretty good bunch of Quartz with lots of minerals and ore in it. I am sending samples off to be analyzed, but it looks like everything from pyrite to copper, to silver and gold. I am in the process of crushing it, but am not sure what to do next. So far I have 5...

Finds (5-17-13) 14th silver coin for 2013: 1937 Mercury Dime (seems there is one in every yard!), 2 Indians (1905, 1907) and some Wheat's(1916,1926,1941). Also got reacquainted with the worst junk target, even worse than pull-tabs and screw-caps. The random sized aluminum siding leftover...

Hi, I found this platter today and Im having issues finding any information on the markings. it is stamped with a 55 and some strange picture ive attached some pictures any thoughts or direction to find out anything regarding this platter would be great thank you!!, see picture '

Served up on a Silver Platter I haven't posted in a while, but I thought finding this silver tea service for $50 was worthy of a my best finds post. 65 Troy ounces solid silver for a tidy 2600% profit. I'll take it!

i was detecting at an "old" church (old is 1920s in the Miami area), Saturday. I was working on a silver coin under a root. I could see the rim, but dimly, as I scratched away at the dirt with a twig I'd picked up. Someone stopped by to help, and if she wasn't a metal detectorist, she was an...

I recently made friends with a teller at one of my banks near my job. I asked him for halves, big dollars, and any old coins or bills one day. He delivered, and gave me a some big dollars, a few 90% halves and a few silver dimes and red notes (see the post here). I came back around recently and...

I have a Bounty Hunter Pioneer 202 Which can only get a consistent coin signal down to 6". In a month I have found $10 or more in clad, 7 wheats, 1 barber dime and a buffalo. The Barber dime, 1 wheat and the buffalo were in the same hole. A weird thing is I have found two surface wheats and one...

I think I may have cleaned out the local soccer field over the last two weeks. In past months I found 2 gold bands there and now over the last 2 weeks I've found 3 more pieces of gold and silver jewelry. Two rings and a pendent. The small ring is sterling 3.5g, the big ring is a sterling band...

I found these while I was metal detecting in a creek where gold has been found, the area is also known for having a tin mine that produced some silver and gold. I bought an acid test, and got these results. I want to think that the acid turned brown, indicating 80% silver, but I have never done...

What's your perspective? A Realistic Look at MD'ing, with Silver and Wheat's No we don't always bring home the silver but LOOK as what we do get most of the time. Then we have those days of MD teasing, you know the thought, "the next dig and we got silver", yet it never shows :mad: Oh well...

Well on my very first outing with my GB2 I found these nuggets: They are extraordinarily dense, dull ashy in color, I can not scratch them with my finger nail, I couldn't even bend or scathe them with a pair of pliers. I don't know what they are but they appear to be Silver or some alloy of...

Went out saturday with a buddy of mine and his wife to hit up his grandmothers yard. She said the house was built in either the 1920's or 1930's. He said he went one time before for just a few minutes before dark and found a couple wheat pennies so we was hopeful and waiting for the nice weather...

With the recent rain, cold, wind, snow, and just about everything else on the list for Oklahoma weather, the stars aligned and I was able to get out and hunt.
