I am retired and crazy about my wife and metal detecting.
Out in the fog today. At first I thought the hunt wasn't that good, but I had a good time not finding stuff. Found a necklace that I thought was costume jewelry, but noticed a stamp on the connection. Once I looked it, it shows .925. Turned it to a good hunt.

Fun hunt today. Usual clad and zincolns. Thingys included a BloodSource pendant with the blood type on the back and an ornate pistol charm.

Sun came out, so I headed out. Pretty sad on coins, but found a token, which I really like finding. Also found a cornucopia of thingys. Have some great hunts in the new year.

Got in a couple hours in the muddy soil today. Found a few coins and a few thingys.

Out mid morning for a very wet and muddy hunt. Only found a few clad and zincolns. Thingys were much more interesting. They included a religious bracelet and a couple of tokens.

Went to what was described as a park here in town. It fell a bit short as a park with just pickle courts and a a dog park. All trash and no finds. There was a big sandy lot next door so I gave it a try. Still a lot of trash, but found some coins and thingys.

Finds from the last few hunts. Clad and zincolns along with a few thingys. Found coin from Mexico and a Euro from Austria. One of the thingys looks like a button, but not sure.

Went out to a park where I've found not a lot of stuff, so today was a better hunt than I've had in the past. Small amount of clad and zincolns, with a coin from Mexico. Thingys were nice. The Cherokee was made in France.

Had a fun hunt this morning. Found a bit more clad and zincolns, found what I think is a clad quarter that was put through one of those machines that makes a smashed coin. Also found a variety id thingys.

Not much, I said, but I always have a good time.

Out early this morning. Fairly wet and cold. Not many coins today, but the thingys came out to play.

Out again between the storms. Didn't find much, but I always have a great time. Found a some clad and zincolns, with a couple of '70s copper memorials. Thingys included a pendant and some googly eyes.

Got out in between the storms this morning. Found a good amount of clad and zincolns. The lone thingy was pretty cool. Brass whistle made in England by ACME. I wonder if it came with a Wiley E. Coyote.

Very fun hunt this morning. Found some clad and zincolns that were in good shape. Also found a '67 & '74 copper cents. Thingys were interesting with the best find of a .925 ring and a small, very detailed deer head.

Nice hunt this morning. Good amount of clad and zincolns, with a '64 copper memorial. Thingys were in abundance with a '74 Hot Wheels fire department truck and various other stuff. Best find was a 1975 transit token from Medford, Oregon.

It was a bit of a thin hunt this morning, but I had a great time. Found some very dirty clad and some crunchy zincolns. Not one thingy today, bummer.

Fun morning hunt. Fair amount of clad that included 2 Bicentennial quarters and some zincolns. Also found a nice variety of thingys.

Metal detected my first Mercury dime today.

Morning hunt. Found a variety of thingys, and some clad and zincolns. Also found d a possible coin that was made into a pendant and a zincoln that was stamped with either an angel or ghost.

Had a good hunt this morning. Found a good amount of clad and zincolns. Coin of the day was an Indian cent in pretty poor condition. I think the last 2 digits are 99, so hopefully, it's 1899 (my first one). Thingys included a smashed cent from Fairytale Town and a small cylinder with engravings.

Got in an early morning hunt. Found some clad and zincolns with a couple of copper memorials. Thingys were interesting and included a St. Benedict metal, a round with Mary's image on it.

I love finding foreign coins. Today was a 2008 five cent coin from Bermuda. In addition, found a Kennedy half as well as a couple of copper memorials. Thingys were light but included a metal button,and a cheap ring.

Overlooked a find from yesterday. A cute bracelet, that, as I look through my loop, turns out to be .924 from Mexico. Better day than I thought.

I'm out hunting yesterday and found a good amount of clad and zincolns, as well as a variety of thingys. Among the finds was a .925 ring.

Out with the Simplex this morning. Small amount of clad and zincolns, with a last year wheat cent '58 D. Found a variety of thingys which included a kitty hair clip and a quick link.
