I just joined the site yesterday, and what a fantastic and informative site it is. Great folks out there, and an unbelievable amount of finds! This will be my first post, so hopefully I get it right. ;D
I just thought I'd post a few pictures of some of the things I've found last year. Most all of them were found on playgrounds. Some silver dimes, asst'd other coins, jewelry, tokens, & charms. My best find though was the 1945 Gold Mexico 2 1/2 Peso mounted to an earing backing. It was still shining like new when I dug it up. My next adventure will be checking an old abandoned late 1800's home that I finally received permission to detect at before they bulldoze it down to make room for a car lot. Also on the property is a barn, two outbuildings, and an outhouse. I can only hope to find some of the treasures that some of you have uncovered! I'll bring an extra pair of shorts just in case. :D

About your 1800s house, if you can(and it's safe), get inside. Also, don't forget to check it AFTER they doze it, they may turn somethin' up for ya. Good luck - HH

Hello, & Welcome to the forum...
Great group of finds, and I really like that display. Is that something that you made up yourself, or is that some sort of collectable that was put out that way?
Continued Good luck, & Happy hunting~

P.S.> I like your humor already... ;D
I'll bring an extra pair of shorts just in case.

Goldencoin,
Thanks for the fence post tip. I would have never thought of that. I've got a LOT to learn about this hobby. I'll keep you "posted". :o
