Got my first medal detector a couple of weeks ago and have been playing with it trying to learn the various tones and using the digital ID scales. So far I have found 73 modern pennies, 3 modern nickels, 13 modern dimes, and 3 modern quarters. Have also found and old spoon from a catholic seminary college dating back to 1843 and used up to around 1975. This old seminary is also very near an old civil war fort on the Mississippi river.Also found on the seminary site was the V shaped buckel, the unknown medal object directly above it and the medal ball above that and the object that looks like part of a hinge to the right of the buckel and the old skeleton key. Also pictured is an old toy gun hammer, padlock key, some sort of medal clover that was attached to a longer rod. 2 childrens rings, a barrett and butterfly hairpin, childs braclet, small chain, small gold colored cross, a D ring, split ring, button pin and an old Oreint coal tag. Also pictured are 4 wheat pennies dated 1941, 1952 D, 1952 D, 1935 D, and a 1961 dime.
