All frustrated hunters, there is hope!

[WHADIFIND]

UPDATE: Final piece of info in my last post.





I've been on a roll lately of "interesting" finds. That's what I call them when I'm frustrated that I'm not finding a treasure chest. LOL
I hadn't even found one single silver coin this year yet!

So, today, I decided to give it a try. The weather was sunny, blue skies, not too cold. But, before I went to my school ground I decided to go check the air in the tires. A cold snap coming up and I have one with a slow leak. I was happy to find that the tire has held it's pressure for a couple weeks now. Maybe, I can sneak by a bit more. BUT.....I digress.

I pulled up to the pump, got out, shoved my money in the machine and bent down to pick up the nozzle and this is what I saw:



Now, I've seen broken glass reflecting the sun back up at me before, this was different. So, I looked a little closer:



Could it POSSIBLY be!?!?!



At this point, I didn't care. My hunt was already a success! Doesn't matter what else happens!

So, I pump up and continue to my spot. I get out, walk to the spot I wanted to start on, tuned in my detector and bingo! A very, very nice signal. On the AT-Pro, this came up as 90!!! I tried swinging different directions, it was very insistent, 90, 90, 90! I haven't had a signal this stubborn before. AND, it was less than 3 inches!! So, I dug:





My first silver coin for 2013!

My day is made.

I stayed for a while but the winds got to be so bad that for the first time in my life, a hunt was cut short due to winds! After it took my clad quarter out of my hand and blew it half way across the field, I just gave up. LOL

Here's the rest:



For the frustrated, just keep on keepin' on. It'll come.




approx. 1.5 carats

Thanks for peeking!

Wow my gf would love that "rock!"

 

[Fitzwilk]

Amazing. What's a rock that size worth?

Well, let me just say this. My friend, who tested and said this was real and even though it was not completely "perfect". He does deal with them and since I have no use for it, we've come to an "agreement". One that, basically, made my AT-Pro free, my next two upgrades also, and, I figure I now have batteries for the rest of my life!

Now THAT is one pleasant thought that will make the cabin fever that's sure to set in just a little bit more tolerable. Don't you?

Thanks!

Happy Hunting everyone!!

From now on instead of looking up I'm looking down! Congrats on your finds.

Just remember, not EVERYTHING that reflects back up at ya is a piece of broken glass.

Thanks!

You have indeed inspired me, all this cold weather we are having hopefully it will produce some ICE up here too.

ZDD

I love eye ball finds, congrats on the hunk of silver.

That diamond is probably worth at least 5 or 6 AT Pros! It's almost 2 Carats!!! You should take that to a diamond EXPERT. That could be a 5 to 10,000 dollar diamond unless it's loaded with flaws. Don't trade it away for a fraction of what it's worth!

Did I mention that the one I "discussed" this with was a friend? You see, nowadays "friend" seems to mean something different. This guy is an "EXPERT" and I didn't say that it was traded for an AT-Pro. Just that the new one I have has been paid for, PLUS the next 3 upgrades and batteries for life! What I didn't say is that was ALL. You know, momma didn't make no fool?

This "friend" is a tried and true, lifelong friend which I would trust with my very life.

Too much doubt in this world and not enough "friends".

Thanks for the kind effort to protect me from myself.

HH!

Well awesome then. Just didn't seem like you were getting much out of it. I know "friends" aren't always perfect and when money is involved it can sometimes color opinions and motives. Good luck and HH to you

No harm, no foul. It's all good. I would rather someone try to help protect me than just laugh when I screw up. It is appreciated. Just didn't want to post up the full value, ya know?

Thanks!

Some great finds ! Thanks for sharing with us.

I love eye ball finds, congrats on the hunk of silver.

That's just it, the hobby is fascinating! The metal detector, pro-pointer, jack-hammer are all just tools. It teaches one to always keep their eyes and ears open and to keep history in mind. I am ALWAYS scanning the ground, with detector or eyes. It's just so neat to find stuff!!

Thanks!

and HH! (if it ever warms up!!! )

Whadifind great find.

White Akuma I look at the ground everywhere.... this makes me think of one of my habits. When driving I'm always watching the edge of the road for goodies. I have found a lot of interesting things along the road. It seems people are always loosing things going down the road. I have found Snap-on tools, money, a wallet (returned to owner), a cordless screwdriver, half a dozen tiki torches now around my pool... you name it.

Some people think I'm just a pack rat.... I call it "Alternative Treasure" finder.

Congrats on your first 2013 silver, and awesome diamond!
