Found it under some rocks with my metal detector. It been there for quite some time. Not sure what kind of metal it is made from>(gold plated or actual gold or even brass, perhaps?) Also found a heart shape pearl colored? piece in the same hole. I have no idea how much this is worth..

Spent a weekend trying to find thawed ground for the first detecting trip of the year. Several locations on the route still had frozen ground at 3-5".

Hello from Arkansas. I am in Russellville Ar and am looking for a prospecting partner. I have a 4x4 and don't mind hitting the mountains:) Also, I hear that silver has been found in the natural state!!
Found 2 rings, a 10k ring and a 14k & silver ring (David Yurman) + $1.22 in clad coins!
Cleaned up plenty of trash in between the treasure Discoveries, a Great day all in all!
Hi all, I'm new on here but joined in light of a recent find(s) I've made. I live in British Columbia and found some unknown what appear to be metal nuggets of some sort. I was hoping someone on here could help potentially identify them as I have no idea! Please let me know what you think...
So I have been magnet fishing for 1,5 years now, and in the last part of 2014 I found some nice things!
One of the best things was a silver spoon with one part silver and one part stainless steel which was why it was magnetic :)
You can see the spoon here:

In 2014 I also found some...
came across this cleaning out my old jewelry box. no idea who gave it to me. it's in great shape. I am not a collector. Is anyone interested in it? First time ever posting to a forum. If I don't get back to you, be patient with me. Any thoughts to value of it? Thank you.
With my discriminate set at just below nickel I got a solid tone with a bit of a crackle. I flicked the trigger on my Tejon forward to enable the second discriminate set just under screw cap. She still gave a solid signal, but I could hear that bit of iron. I decided to dig. I pulled the plug...
I didn't post a few weeks ago when I dug my first silver coin, so this actually makes my second so far. There is a grassy lot right in town where I live where 2 houses used to stand. I had never hit that spot because I didn't know whose land it was. When I was informed the town owned it I was...

I recently purchased a few items from an estate sale and thought I would check to see if anyone recognized this Makers Mark. I never buy silver or plated silver but this item just kind of caught my eye. Anyhow, any information you can share would be greatly appreciated.
I have a 3 troy oz (92.1 g) silver pendent/gorget with what appears to be William Penn on the front and an elephant on the reverse side. Their are also many other little symbols carved into the sides, top and bottom. The symbols look similar to those that were found on the Lenape Stone found in...

I went metal detecting, and stepped on a yellow jacket's nest, and end up getting a sting to the leg. I then go to the Supermarket, and a woman was putting coins in the self checkout station. I noticed a silver edge in the quarter section. I told her I collect coins, and I'm wondering if I can...
1920's Sterling Silver Mirror and Chainmail Bag
Another dump find, this time some 1920's stuff. Found this amongst household junk someone tossed. There were some other old things like combs and books but they were all broken and must have been outside in the elements for quite some time...
Heya Everyone;
The ol' swimming hole did it again!
Two days ago I found a 14k White and Yellow gold men's Wedding ring!
It comes in at 5.5 grams and polished up oh so nicely. :)
This is my first precious metal ring find, I have found others but not worth anything.
Just a few feet away is...
Todays trash:
The WWII US Army rifle proficiency badge, was my good find of today. Think this is a first silver military medal finding for me! Quite a thrill it was and unexpected in the ground. Got a 1946 silver dime also so it was a double good silver day !
Total finds for the day ...
Former mining village and father's yard
Today I decided to hunt in an area where company houses from one of the Pennsylvania coal co mines use to stand. The houses were demolished in the 1940s I beleive. Today was just a test hunt and I ended up with a pocket knife and a small token or button...
Local park's field keeps on giving, silver pocket spill and an Indian head.
Only was able to hunt for around a hour before people came to use the fields for soccer practice and I decided to just keep out of the way but I did find some goodies.
This makes my first ever Merc's I found and...
Finally had the opportunity to go for a hunt a bit this evening. Lucky for me the section of park that I've been hunting lately because it seems to be overlooked by other detectorist was free of kids practicing baseball or soccer! I started abouts where I left off the last time and started...

Has anybody ever done any coinshooting at Salton Sea, California? If so, any luck on finding silver coins or other valuable coins? Salton Sea is now a relative ghost town(minus the occasional group of vagrants and squatters). This place did have a major flood years back which could have...
