Finally got to detect after moving from Alaska and having a baby. I couldn't go out much with the new baby so I detected in my yard. Stir crazy.
In 45 mins I had found a civil war bullet!!! And a nudie coin! I don't know much about either item but that's the first worth while thing I've found since starting the hobby.
and if anyone can give me info on my finds it is appreciated.
Bullet was found a few inches down in my gravel driveway and coin was found in front of house 4-5 inches down.
Thanks for looking!

Congratulations on your backyard results.
So sad that we have to carry a sidearm while swinging a coil in the neighborhood.

Let me guess: Alaska, Fayetteville, Tennessee..., Fort Wainwright, Fort Bragg, Fort Campbell?

U guessed it. But no Campbell. Just had a house here in Tennessee that we just moved back to since hubby left army. Lol
