well been out all day with my brother. hit the homestead and his old house yard both dating to the early 1900's his house even earlier. found mostly clad but a few good suprises. i dont have all the items found in pic but not pictured are a few misc items. a 1982 hotwheels car tht was my bros as a child and some clad etc plus an un identified piece of iron w bullet holes. as far as pictured a few copper clad pennies from the 70's and older what i believe to be a penny or older coin (far right) to corroded to identify and a silver morgan!!!!! not bad for some newbies on a half frozen day! im excited to see what others come up with through the warm season. :) happy hunting all!!!!!

This is going to be my 11th Year Detecting.

Still haven't found a Silver Dollar. I think 8 silver halves, but never a silver dollar.

I'd say your off to a fast start.


I'm in IC, right down the road from ya.

Very cool ! Sad state of affairs with our current crop of junk coins but the badly corroded and half gone coin you found is likely a modern Zinc cent. 50 years from now our kids & grandkids won't be finding the coins we lost. They will have all turned back into dirt.
