Detector(s) used
DFX
So, I travel a lot and haven't got to metal detect so much. I have yet to get a hard case for my detector to take on flights. On the few times I was able to drive to where I was working, I threw the DFX in the back of my car and tried the new areas here are the results:

Fort Wayne, Indiana:
Hunted three nights straight with nothing but clad. On the fourth night hit 4 wheats plus these:
1896 Indian (First Indian and first 1800's):

1907 Indian:

1907 V Nickel:

On the way home from Indiana, I stopped in a park in Ohio and found a ring (will post pics later) plus this Canadian Pocket Spill. Notice the 60 year seperation in dates.
1933 One Cent:

1991 One Cent:

Finally, last week I found this in my change:
1964 Roosevelt:

I took this as a good omen, and went out on Monday in my hometown in PA and found my FIRST SILVER COINS!:
1946 Roosevelt:

1964 Washington:

Went back to the same spot yesterday, I haven't even touched one percent of the available land, and found these (plus another ring which I will post later as well):
191? Mercury Dime:

1962 Roosevelt:

So, lots of first for this newbie, and finally that elusive silver coinage. They look awesome coming out of the ground, right?

The ole Hoosier State pops out some good stuff now and again....Nice job... :thumbsup: jgas
 
There is nothing so lovely as the the sight of a silver coin in your hole!!That looks like a great spot you have there!
 
congrats on your first 1800s and silver coins, HH!
 
Nice finds Kevo and Congrats to man.

Looks like your getting good with that Dfx. P.a is a great place to search for old coins. I'm here in Pittsburgh and we have more than 250 yrs of history here. Plus native american habitates that go back 5,000 yrs. It's just the begining of a nice life of hunting.
