Been uneventful in the coin department. Found about ten wheats... Where's the silver? Oh well, here's highlights from a few hunts.

Nice Fleur De Lis Boy Scout pin on the first one. The next is a Great Seal Button 1902 to present. Excellent finds! Keep up the hunting!

Great looking buttons. Congrats.
They must have been into owls in the old days. I found an owl pin last year in the woods by a well. Also an "O.O.O." (Order Of Owls) early 1900's pin some years ago.
Nice finds,

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback. Metal detecting's more fun when I can show off! Just gotta say, modern miner, you're a umax god! I always like seeing your finds. Gives me hope in finding the old whatevers.

The Boy Scout Pin is the "Tenderfoot" rank badge. I believe they stopped inscribing them with the motto Be Prepared in the 50's.

Great Find.

Thanks Tector. I really think the Silver Umax is a great machine. Nothing fancy but it finds the goods. Good locations, gridding, and going slow help too.
Looking forward to you next post. Good luck.
