Newbie Here...With My First Months Finds...Not Great But It's A Start

Hi Everyone
I've been looking in on Tnet for a while now...metal detecting has been something I've always wanted to do...but ever got around to it.And reading and seeing everyone's finds is just what i needed.So I went out and got a Ace 350,not top of the line but good for a starter I guess (also the cost wasn't that high) So far I'm happy with it...and still trying to get a handle on using it......I've had it for 4 weeks now...And these are My first Month's finds....Not Great But it will do for a start.

3 childs rings....one is silver marked .925
3 wheat pennys 1945/48/57
1 button...boys brigade...on the back it says...g.w. simmons & co. boston.....would like to find some info on this
1 trade token...w.h. grimes co.....6 bottles....with #30 stamped in the middle.....would like to find some info on this as well
And
1 Indian Head Penny 1892
And
$20 plus of clad gas $$$

Good start. I’ve been doing this for 2 years now and not found an Indiana Head Cent. Nice pile of clad there. Silver is fun to find isn’t it, all shiny and stuff coming out of the ground. HH.

Possible 5 cents a bottle, (30 for 6)? I'm assuming it's a uniface, with nothing on the reverse?
Very nice token, and a excellent start to a great hobby/obsession.

yeah man your rocking!!! :headbang:


I just got my Ace350 (and so far so good.) I detected at my step dads place and only found 3 memorial pennies! (and lots of rusted up junk car parts, copper wire, old pieces of curtain rod! crazy junk!) then I gave up after a few hours of digging trash and went to the local super market to get lunches for work- and found a sweet 1949 dime at coin star! made my day!!!!! :laughing9:

so I've only had my 350 on 3 outings so far, both have been mostly junk and some clad coins. finding any kind of ring would be outstanding! nice work!
