Baldingboy and I went out to play last night and took our tectors with us. We headed for an "old" church. The Pastor told us he didn't know when it was built but it was OLD he said. We found a Wheat penny imbedded in the concrete that was put there on purpose from 1951 so I am guessing that's when the church was built.

Anyway after an hour of detecting and only finding 1 copper penny some junk and a Copperhead BB and I decided to try and find a better place. So he called up a person he had gotten permission to hunt from earlier this year and we went back there.

Found 3 Wheats a 38, 50 and 51, hmmmm coincidence? Maybe, more like a message maybe. Also found two tootsie toy cars, well 1 and a half point five maybe. Also some pieces to a bigger car.

Then about an hour into the hunt I got a good hard copper signal and dug the necklace and the four charms out of the ground it drove me NUTS trying to find the little pieces but I got it all out of the hole.

Then as we were wrapping up I got a good signal and dug the music box mechanism at 8 inches. The home owner was standing there watching me and I kept getting a possible silver signal and I was afraid I was going to find big silver and he would want it. But it turned out to be the music box mech.

I also found this round thing with numbers on the top of it.

Thanks for looking.

Nice to get out.
I'm curious. You rmention taking you "tectors"
with you when you play............I was just wondering, Is
there any other way to play?!
 

Yeah sometimes we take our shotguns, some times it's fishing poles, and some times it's tectors.

Don't you have any other hobbies? ??? :wink: :D
 

Thats an unusual looking necklace, looks Asian in origin to me.

Keep safe guys...

good eye Nick. Even my foot doctor told me my dogs stank!!!! ;D
 

Great finds, ME. I really like that bracelet :thumbsup:

:wink: RR
 

You know as I was cleaning it up last night I had the same exact thought. I wondered what tune it played and what kind of box it came out of and how it got so deep....
 

Eagle eyes, Nicky! :D

OK..call me blind. Looks like a very neat necklace. But I can't see the charms. :P Looks like one is a fish, maybe?

Last week Lisa, Terri and I went to this little church, that was built in the late 1800's expecting a few keepers.

Nana :)
 

BB and I hunted a place that looked almost identical and we just knew we were going to find the goods. A few junk items and that was it. Turns out they had hauled in 3 foot of dirt to level the place up. :(
