Minelabs are trash machines!

[NGE]

Now that I have your attention . Using a Minelab detector is not all coins and jewelry. Sure I post all my neat stuff and clad, but that's not fair to the nube's who come in here and want to know what kinds of things they could be finding with their machines. I have found all kinds of nasty things (not pictured) syringes, hand grenade (live!), broken glass, live ammo, real pistols, lead knuckles, brass knuckles, rusty nails, stick pins, you name it . Here is a picture of some of the tame stuff I have found in the last two months of hunting. If I am near a trashbin, I empty my trash from my apron into it, but if there is none around, when I get back to my truck I empty it into a plastic trash can I keep in the way-back by the tailgate. So, this is NOT all the trash I have dug in the past 2 months, just a small percentage........NGE Note: the pail is a five gallon bucket, it is half full.

I couldn't agree more! Both Monty and NGE see it like I do.
Love local history! I can't get enough of this hobby. Get's me outside, and I get to connect with what happened here more than a hundred years ago on a level most people will never understand.

Good Luck,
Mark

Forgot to add one important thing. Every now and then I find a 'jewel' among the junque and that is fun too! Monty

Broken glass?

Quite a detector you have there!

Hubby has the Minelab Ex II and he pulls LOTS OF JUNK too! But we go through it carefully, as a couple of times, what appeared to be junk, was something really cool!

KUDOS to you for pulling all that stuff from the ground. I tell you though, at the beach, I have found broken light bulbs (from the Christmas display they do each year), broken glass, sharp tin pieces, nails...amazing what can be found at the beach, but each piece you remove is one child less to get hurt!
