Search results for query: area is producing silver

I went back to the same beach as the one I posted about last week, and I was not disappointed! I arrived just after the peak of high tide, so I didn't have time to wait for low tide and hunt the areas where I previously found the silver jewelry and coins. However, there was an area of beach...

You continue to make this claim but have presented no evidence that the Silver Chief ever produced a single ounce of silver. You have often quoted the 1883 Congressional report from the director of the U.S. mint but you neglect to mention that at that point in time the Silver Chief had not...

Very Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!

Congrats....your crushing it sir !! Great work !!

Hey 7up, don't lose faith. Those dimes are out there - maybe not a lot of them, but they're out there. If you're finding wheat pennies then you're in a location that has a chance at silver dimes. Although, 1950's sites are on the borderline of being silver-producing. (Meaning that there...

It has been getting warmer so I headed out. It was 30 when I got to the campus 12 miles east where it is warmer, the sun was warm and at the end of the hunt it was 54 and I was shedding layers. The ground conditions were strange. Some good digging next to small rock hard patches of ground so...

Welcome to the forum, as for the Puyallup there is no historical records of gold found there but you are close to a good gold producing river, the White River, gold, silver and copper are found there and there was a lot mining there in the old days, lode and placer mines in the area. I looked on...

Went camping with the scouts last weekend and went to a ball field picnic area and got a few hours to swing the CZ21. The area is not used much anymore, but I have found a few goodies in the past. This time in 2.5 hours I managed 16 coins with a face value of $1.30, a buckle, a token, a leaf...

Hey GoDeep, here are some pictures of the field. The first one is taken from where you enter the field; all that wide open grass has been modified to make those sports fields. In the first picture all the silver coins have been coming from the far side of the field of view. The second picture...

you are crushing it, lots of cool finds and love that silver! Thanks for the detailed post

I have owned 5 different mines and you must have it professionally surveyed to make sure what you are buying is there and legal.

Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!

Hey there, I hammered this piece of quartz of a 2ft wide vein cutting through schist host rock. I was prospecting in a gold producing area near shear zones. Some of the mineral showing is bright white, but most as you can see is an ashy color. When tilting against light ill get a little redish...

I never dreamed I would find a spot like I did today, turned out to be my best silver coin day ever!! I've been on a 6 day hunt starting last Wed and ending Tuesday morning when I head home. I've been hitting a couple parks in the town I'm staying in and a couple of surrounding towns as well...

Very Nice!!!! Congrats!!!!

Reading a book just last night... All kinds of different detectors. From the sixties on pretty much. VLF and it's abilities "back then" was like a newcomer. Fast. But suited (like each type is ) best to certain tasks. VLF.detectors. TR detectors. BFO detectors. PI." ". RF." ". Folks...

Steamboat, In early 2000, Ron Feldman, Greg Davis, Ron Lorenz and I were heading out to Aylors old camp in the Superstitions. Ron was driving his truck, Greg was in the front and Lorenz and I were in the back. Feldman was telling me about the HEAT dig at Rogers spring and the conversation...

Gidday Lilorphanannie Once again thanks for the very interesting story. From what I can determine many of earlier mines was incorporated into one mining complex so many of earlier mines go absorbed into one mining operation. A former small underground Ag-Au-Pb-Zn-Cu-Hg mine located in the...
