Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting

I tried a new part of town today to see what could drum up. I started out working some grassy areas between some curbs and sidewalks before getting a permission to detect a private yard. Most of the homes in the area were built in the mid-fifties.

A lady drove up and started talking to me and wanting to know what I was doing. She said that she lived down the street and pointed out the house. After some friendly chit chat I popped the question. How about you letting me detect your yard? Y'all saw that one coming a mile off! She said sure have it.

She drove off to go to work before I could give her a key chain light when a truck drove up behind her. I'll see her again and thank her really good and give her a key chain light. Maybe she has some friends who live up and down the street.

I detected around 3 hours, I just couldn't get it in gear today. I almost found as many silver coins as I did wheat pennies. I just wasn't in a digging mood today. I need to switch things up again.

I was using the Nokta Fors Relic today with 3 Tones, 99 Sensitivity, Iron Tone 2, ID Mask 5 and IMask 2. The weather was gorgeous!

Thanks! I'm not keeping count this year. I'm going to pace myself and try some different type of detecting and sites.

I'm always stunned by how much nicer the "mercury " dime is than the Rosie , or even the Barber for that matter .
 

How to you rid them of dirt?
 

Nice job on the silvers.
 

What are these keychains you keep giving away? :)

Nice stash o silver@!
 

I don't know how you do it tabman, practically a new detector every hunt lately. I find it hard to move to machines from other manufactures as quickly as you. I bet you could pull silver if only armed with your pin pointer.
