Relic Hunting
For me, while silver and gold jewelry are exciting and really old coins can give you a date and make rush, but a really awesome relic can make it hard for me to decide too. Of course class rings are just awesome too but then you find something from a war period and the blood gets pumping.:icon_scratch: I guess that I straddle the fence on this right now, just too many finds that are awesome in their own right. right now I like it all in one way or another.
 

#1 - Gold of any form or fashion, #2 - Scads of clad, quick, easy, and always available. #3 - Silver, not worth the effort anymore, just take what I run into while hunting clad. #4 - Relics, sold as soon as I can find an interested party, or if of low value then it is still out there waiting for whoever wants it. I've found my trophies, and basically just interested in fattening my wallet. Good hunting for whatever turns you on!
 

Ill take anything specially if i walk up and shes laying in the sun in a g string bikini wearing gold or silver now that gets my blood a pumping:laughing7:
 

Rings, especially if silver and gold. Necklaces because they are so hard to find.

I have never found a class ring. That would make my year. Returning a class ring would be priceless.
 

Pull tabs. Each time I dig one I think, Well.....It COULD have been a gold ring.
 

A pocket spill of these.:tongue3:

Gold for sure, especially with interesting stones. Then old coins, then silver.

But the Returns I have had are my fondest memories. The intensity of the moment when someone lays their hands on something they cherish that they thought was gone forever is indescribable.

I do love the returns, the disbelief that they have in their possession what was once long lost, it is truly priceless
 

Any find that doesn't have me saying 'dammit'.
 

1. Large coppers, I haven't found one all year, and if I do, I will probably freak out. Spanish silver is an even better feeling, only found one though.
2. Colonial relics, shoe buckles and nice unique relics especially.
3. Silver coins or Indian Head cents.
4. Gold Jewelry, maybe a little higher than silver coins, it depends on how the size or each.
 

Being primarily a coin shooter, digging a bucket list coin always gives me the biggest rush. Seeing silver in the hole never ceases to bring a smile to my face, but a bucket lister will get to me break out into my happy dance.

I like most 'Cool non trash' Items I dig, but Seeing the White Patina of a Civil War Bullet get's me high, as Does Anything 'Silver Dollar Size' or Smaller round & has that Green Brass Patina, & Silver & Gold of course 'the gold I find usually turns out to be Aluminum tho.

Clad, Scrap Brass & Copper all pays well , to.
 

For me, anything that is not pulltabs, foil or can slaw is a real good start. Would have to say that gold, silver or early American coinage would be the top of my list but with the small amount of hunting I have been able to do, even clad has a place and is quite welcome.
 

I like anything my LRP gives a Beep for. It used to be CW relics but now any silver coin.

I love medallions and souvineer piecies that I can't read or research untill I get home. Tokens also!!!!

Same, I forgot to mention them! I have a huge medallion/fob/souvenir piece collection from metal detecting. They are some of my favorite finds, and most meaningful.
 

Hi; I love finding anything that when at the end of the day as me and my gal are about to go to sleep and she asks "How did you do today"?? and I reply by sliding a good find into her hand only to see her beautiful smile. That always gives me a good Rush.!!! PEACE:RONB
