first find

  1. What is it?

    Hi I just started with metal detecting and this is one of my first find, from the similar photos it is an very old horse shoe, but can someone confirm and how old can it be. Should keep searching in that area. Thanks
  2. Stone arrowhead or scraper?

  7. First Detector and First Civil War Hunt

    I took my 9 year old out for his first detecting trip with his new Fisher F2. We hunted a field that the troops had passed through on their way to Gettysburg. I was working my way back to the truck when my son heard a good signal and found his first Civil War artifact - a New York staff...
  8. My first coins!!!!!!

    :sunny:Went down Humarock (Marshfield) at 6:15 this morning with my Garrett Pro Pointer which arrived yesterday. First time I ever used it and I have no doubt it led to my first coins! I know they're just clad, but it was WICKED EXCITING to turn the sand and see something flat and round! OMG...
