Spent the week in Dallas. Had a good week working and a good week detecting!
First day I go out to a park, I get a signal and proceed to dig it up. WRONG!!
They haven't had rain in awhile and the ground is like cement. I'm used to digging in the Florida sand ;D .
I had to stick to the wood chips. Found $13.82 in clad, a silver 1959 dime, a wheatie, a silver ring .925,
a pumpkin stage coach (Cinderella) .925 charm and a bunch of other stuff. I found these brass balls that are screwed together. Does anyone know what they are???
While there I also left a pint of the red stuff.
Going to Omaha next week and meeting up with Nedigger, can't wait!!

Good Luck and HH

A real nice haul there BadDog. Lots of variety, especially being mostly in the wood chips.

Hey Baddog... Mark the brass balls up as being claimed by the owner!! My best friend used to have a set of brass balls but then he got married a while back and ever since he just isn't the same. I think he also lost his spine... Maybe the one Beekrock found was his??

Thanks for all the great comments. I really am curious as to what these brass things are.
I'm almost a little afraid to find out maybe.
I was at a customer of ours and they had a blood drive going on that day. I was asked to donate and didn't even hesitate.
All it costs is about 10 minutes of your time and it could make a difference!
Mchamby, this was a weeks worth of detecting I probably hit 10 schools and 10 parks. Some produced alot some produced very little.
I found lots of nickels, shame on you Dallas hunters hunting in coin mode ;D .

By the way I came across a few places that I couldn't hunt but looked good, PM me for details.

If anyone else wants to get together in my travels I have trips to Toledo, Las Vegas, Atlanta and Colorado Springs coming up.

Good Luck and HH

Hey Baddog1 - Great finds. I hope we can pull up the goodies here as well. That brass locket looks like one I found here except the loop on mine is gone. Does yours say "Love Forever" on the back? HH.

Yep with 2 very bad pictures in it.
I wonder if it was plated, at some time.

Good luck and HH

Mine had no pictures. If it was plated there are no signs of it left. Found mine at an old school here a couple inches down. HH.

Hey when you come to Atlanta check out the public mines just outside of Atlanta where you can pay $10 for 5 gallons of dirt and they provide the stuff to pan it out. You get to keep anything you find! You can even find a guide to take you panning for gold around Atlanta in the streams. It was on travel channel last week so just google it and check it out. Would be fun to do anyway and you can always do with a couple more " nuggets" huh? Hehehehhe!
