Hey All

Just going to post a thread of my finds, (my log to be honest) I haven't found anything recently, but will be commenting every time I hunt with what I hunted and if I'm lucky, what I found!

Thank you for your interest in my finds.

Thanks Dihren, tried her out today.
Got a wheatie first time out =)
Also a dog license tag in my yard from 1962.
Also went to the town beach, didn't find much so I had an idea! I said, I'll try in the area where people park, got a ton of pennies, few dimes, and a quarter. Someone approached me and said "I live on that hill there, I shoot my bow, and sometimes I can't find the arrows, they lodge themselves pretty well into the ground, each on you find I'll give you $5"
I said OFCOURSE
Made $20 > Also found ANOTHER dog license tag 1952
Then went home, had lunch, and went back out to the school playground, the older kids playground gave up a few pennies, some dimes, and 1 lonely quarter.
Then went to the little kids playground, started sprinkling and did a quick search, nothing great, just some more pennies, and another dime. =-) All adds up!
Taking the old girl out tomorrow, maybe will try some door knocking. Gunna finish the playgrounds, then do where the parents sit at the fields, and then gunna go to the football field, try the bleachers ect.
Happy Hunting all =)

Wicka.. If you live in an old area, one of the best things you can do is just stop by and ask someone who owns an old property if you can metal detect their yard. Private homes have always given me the best finds in metal detecting..

Hey All, Wicka here
Let's do some pretending and say the ground is a huge coin roll. (just so my CRH log don't get moved!)
Well, I did some MD'ing today, and found 91cents in clad. 3 dimes, 2 quarters, and a bit of pennies. Nothing old today.
Hope you all are staying warm! 40 degrees up in Mass today! No hunting for me tomorrow, won't make it to bank before closing.
Wednesday will be good, gunna get 2 bags of nickels and whatever I can in pennies =)
Happy hunting!
Wicka

Hey all!

GREAT DAY!

[Wickaboag]

And this odd dime, is it a horrible error? Or a fake?
The rim is "silver" but has no reeds. It seems "smudged"
Wicka

 

[Wickaboag]

Whooppie! Going through my pre 1960 nickels, I found a 1939D second lowest mintage
Wicka

 

[Adamkir]

Awesome.. What shape or grade do you think it is?

 

[Nickel Searcher 219]

I think the 1950-d is the least minted jefferson nickel.

I've seen clad where the plating seems to entirely cover the copper. Reeds also wear out very fast on coins. Still who knows!

 

[SilverForBrains]

and that's awesome you found a 50d!

The best way that I've seen when you're not sure about a silver coin is drop testing in comparison against a known silver coin. Hopefully it is but you never know!
