First Time Ever MD'ing

Got a White's CoinMaster yesterday and headed out to my yard...

Is this a good, bad, typical day?

Looks good to me - Congratulations, and welcome to the addiction! :occasion14:
 

I would say that's is pretty good for the first time out! If you live in a house that was built before 1960 you may find a silver coin there...Nice digs!
 

Welcome to T-Net and the Metal Detecting Hobby. You did fine, no gas money spent to make your finds and a great chance to learn what your detector is telling you.
 

Those are good enough finds to get you hooked. Keep at it and you will be pulling silver and gold.
 

29 cents not bad. practice, practice, practice. Try doing it again I'll bet that you find more. Go slow. I am always doing my yard. Thought I dug every thing down to the last nail and still got a 1963 Canadian penny. Good luck.
 

Not too shabby

Nice finds! Thanks for sharing...
 

I'd take that haul anytime !!! Makes all the pull tabs and nails I've been digging lately look pretty sad.
 

Keep at it. Thats a good clad count. Silver around the corner.

sponge using smoke signals.
 

Welcome to t-net! :occasion16::wav::occasion16: I like the toy vehicles! Have Fun! Andi
 

The ultimate Thrill in a Transceiver. Signal Out, Signal in, Dig, Recover, Celebrate. No waiting for repeater traffic or Conditions.

Congrats on your first finds. The real excitement comes when you start digging awesome relics, Gold, Silver and whatever.

I think you'll be able to answer your own question on one of those days when you go out and find absolutely nothing but junk!

I'd say you did fantastic!

Just learn all you can about how your detector works and you'll be amazed!

WTG!
 

Off to a good start...IMO
 

Id' say good day...I live in a house that was built as a school in 1861, and was added to in 1881, sold by the county and became a residence in 1900, and added to again in 1927 . A few acres of farmland came with it. It had been abandoned for many years and was wrecked when we got it in '86...I was already an avid detectorists back then. We have lived here almost 30 years and I haven't found one thing on this property! Cellar, wall tear outs, floor tear outs, decades of detecting here and still nothing, DIDDILY FREAKING SQUAT! So I thing your doing fine...good luck going forward!

PS. I forgot, the County records folks say it is considered to be a "contributing member" on and to the Indiana State registry of historic places. And still nothing to dig up in 28 years of detecting...very frustrating.

very good day, cool finds, Kept Digging and have fun thats what it is all about
 

been times that all of us have had nothing to show of any value, it happens so that is not bad at all
 

For your first time out you did just fine. I must warn you, once you start finding some really good stuff you will find this hobby is extremely addicting.
 

Wow JSF! Nothing!? Thanks guys!
