21st silver coin today: 1953-S Roosevelt. Also 1946 Dog Tax Tag, heavily encrusted Indian cent 190?, 2 wheats and a thimble. Really quick hunt today. I think I am easily going to break my goal of 25 silvers for 2013 set a week ago, as I have found about 7 since then.

15th silver coin for 2013: 1908-D Barber quarter. Also an 1884 Indian cent and a wheat cent. (22 actual silver items this year) My friend Jan and I hunted a yard I had permission for but it was a complete bust, not even a wheat cent. After he headed home I walked around the corner to an 1890's...

Have you purchased an Etrac just to find out it's got more buttons and options then you care to mess around with? Probably not :) but if you have I may have a deal for you. I have the same problem only just the opposite. I purchased my Minelab Safari about 6 months ago and I love it. I have...

Teddy Roosevelt campaign fob, Huge Moose Lodge silver ring (9 grams) old melted marble and 5 wheats: 1913, 1920, 1939 & some 40's. I hunted for 2 hours finding only a couple wheats and then found the silver ring at about 7". I stood up swung my coil to the right about a foot and found the fob at...

Found a cool Flood & Conklin varnish can shaped fob and 6 wheats 1927,30-D,37,45-S,44,52-S. Finally got someone home at this early 1900's house I've been checking for a month. Thought there might be a little silver,oh well. Still a nice evening of detecting.

Hunted some yards today with my new detecting friend T. Jason Wright from Greenwood. managed to find a lead policeman toy (1930's?) 1918-S Wheat cent (which is one I needed) and a sterling silver ring. The ring has already found a home on my fiance's finger.

Finds (5-17-13) 14th silver coin for 2013: 1937 Mercury Dime (seems there is one in every yard!), 2 Indians (1905, 1907) and some Wheat's(1916,1926,1941). Also got reacquainted with the worst junk target, even worse than pull-tabs and screw-caps. The random sized aluminum siding leftover...

Not bad for a random yard hunt with the Etrac, Had to try 8 places before I got to hunt this yard. 1962-D Roosevelt Braided silver ring 1909, 1919, 1919-S,1928,1936,1939 and 3 newer wheats.(9) Trade Token from my town circa 1910 Old Marine Corps buttons

Finally a day without rain AND the last day of my vacation! Beautiful day and some nice finds!

The place I started to metal detect Saturday but then got rained out from has no one occupying it now(all the students are leaving at this time of year), so couldn't ask for permission to look again. Knocked on 11 other doors on and around 2nd & Fess (here in Bloomington IN)trying to find a...

Not having much luck with the yards lately even with the Etrac. I received permission a while back to hunt 15 properties all of which have houses built from between 1870 and 1920. Hit first house/property and took two days of searching to pull 2 Indian head cents (1899 &1891) and 3 wheat cents...

I finally got so tired of not finding anything with the Procoil on my Etrac that I started getting superstitious and sold it. Every good item I have found has been with the SEF 6x8. SO...I bought it's big brother the 10x12. Any tips...? Hope this pinpoints almost as well as the smaller coil...

I called and got permission about an hour ago. Looks like it will be a clear day in the high 50's partly sunny. I hunted a worked out park yesterday with nothing good found so wish me luck today. The owner said someone hunted it 2 months ago but it's a huge area so there may be something left...

Better coin finds from yard I've been hunting with my Minelab Etrac. I put the nicer coins together for a pic, not shown are the several wheat cents I found. I've decided this is the best yard I've ever hunted for the amount of time spent searching it. This is the first area I have ever used the...
