first time out

[ran-man]

Went out today to break in the ace 250, actually I was the one that got broken in. Man my legs were sore the next day from getting up and down. I learned how to use the detector and I did find a few things. Best of all I had a great time, can't wait to go back.

Nice finds, at least you did not come back empty handed. Soon you will be finding gold & silver...good luck!!

Shotgun brass head stamps can be IDed here...I like this site cause I can ID the very old ones.

By the looks of your treasures it would appear we have been working the same fields.
I know what you mean by having a great time. My wife can't understand why I spent $800 for a MXT to find little pieces of junk. She says if she was me, she would have saved the $800 and went to the dumps and got all of the junk I ever wanted for free and would not have had to dig it up. (sometimes she can be really cold)

river thanks for the head stamp site.

yeah, born 2 md, its kinda like fishing, you spend alot of money on equipment when you can go buy a fish cheap.

Welcome to the hobby! It is not only fun to find things, you get some good exercise, relaxation and peace of mind getting out. Get out more often and you will not be sore from all those deep knee bends, LOL! HH, Mike

If that didn't put you off your be hooked for life

I guess your a fisherman as well, like many of us on here. Detecting tends to take over.

Welcome from the UK

A bad day detecting still beats a good day at work, at least for me.
