Ozs of silver, 8 gold rings, tons of silver coins, WOOOOOW

[Duke_Davis]

So all summer I had been digging my secret spot. It was a lake that was drained to fix up a dam, I found a gold ring and tons of silver, well around Late August the entire place overgrew with plants and all the metal detectors stopped coming. The dog park I visit often was right by there so I was still going by. One day I see 2 bulldozers, dozing the beach, pushing the sand all the way down, I knew I had to detect again, and when I did I was literally FILLING my pouch with silver and gold. Here are some pictures of the stuff I found. I was still finding stuff there last week, but my pointer broke and its being sent in for repair which may effectively end my detecting for the year and the lake is being filled in in 2 weeks... sad. But alas, heres the finds:

Congrats and as said before don't let not having a pin pointer stop you... I have put over 100 hrs in this summer without one since I have been to broke to buy one. Once I get one I may never hunt without it but it does not bother me now!

Dude, that Andre the Giant toy is awesome! That other "stuff" is cool too

What range did your gold items show up in?

I was using a garrett ace 350, and they showed up at the nickel indicator.

I've never used a pin pointer, makes me wonder what fun I'm missing! I always just lay the detector by the hole and put clods of dirt by it to pinpoint.

Very nice!!! Nice rings and Mercs. Curious about that round token with the three slits?

Definitely get back out there Davis!
Have another pinpointer couriered over-night to you, do whatever you have to, but get back out there!

With finds like those, if you miss this opportunity you'll live to regret it ... trust me!

Holy Moley that is a great spot! Congrats on all the spectacular finds. Pinpointer or not, I'd be hitting that location every moment I was awake!

 

[Dirtwisher]

Dude you could buy 10 pinpointers with a nice gold ring. Get one overnighted. Or send me the address and I will hit the spot for you over the next two weeks!!!

i hate you

Congrats... That's a site I dream of finding, those finds practically cover the cost of your detector. I'd take some vacation time and pound that site, but of course I am addicted to this hobby. Looking forward to see more pics of more finds.

Freakin awesome!!!

Man that spot is possibly the best ever 😳 my favourite is the Will Ferrell action figure lmao!

 

[Eagleye]

We're going streaking!

 

[BVI Hunter]

Think I would have pawned a ring or two and bought another pin pointer!

Great finds!!

Fabulous! Love hearing about your adventure plus your super pics!

Harbor Freight sells simple pinpointers for $25 or less which you could buy in their store or order online if it's not in stock in the store. Or just go back to your wonderful site with only your detector if you've any energy left after your summer of super hauls! Big Congrats! Andi

 

[treblehunter]

I dream of finding a site like that! Congrats!
