Like most say its not a really older dump BUT---keep digging down you may find some old stuff. Just keep what you like and money is secondary. 3 types of diggers, one does it for money the other for fun, and the last (myself) I do it for both. Keep what I like and sell or trade some things. Same...
Some great finds everyone!!!. I haven't been out too much lately. Work and college have cut into my detecting time!. Looks like most everyone has had a good year. I too, have had an exceptional year.1846-large cent1911 British coronation medal1909 Wheat (plus too many to list 1910-1920s) and...
Well yesterday I snatched up $4 in returnables, a pr of womens size 7 underarmour sandals, sunglasses, some pcs of copper and brass, some spending change and a 1905 Indianhead cent. Not a whole lot but was a fun time out.
Cleaned up the ball fields and got about $6, also a kids sunglasses, and $4 in returnables. Only one old coin a 1940 wheat. Hope everyone gets out this weekend.
Thanks for posting the pic Jim. We have a couple days here in the 90s then a cool off. May try to get out early tomorrow before the heat. I walked the fairgrounds...that silver plate silverware is all over. I just took a short walk and found 1 complete spoon, and half another on the two track...
Today was kind of dismal...2p 1d, some scrap (pop cans blown up from lawn mowing)...Then the heat and humidity...decided to go rummage sale looking. Found some WW2 stuff so not a total loss for the day.
Nice coins. Many of the tokens could be worth $$ too. The 1863 (not one cent) token might be a good one. The story Ive heard was there was a shortage of cents in some areas and tokens were used in their place. Good luck with your box of finds!.
Cleaned up after one of the fairs today. 21q,28d,3n,44p. Some returnable bottles, 1phone cord adapter for car use, couple tent stakes, 1 rusted jack knife, and some scrap copper and brass.
Well today I got 11q, 11d, 3n, 14p, some scrap pcs and two interesting finds. One is a bronze 1911 King Geo V and Queen Mary coronation medal. Someone has been given one of these in 1911, and to find it here in Michigan, in a dump area detecting was interesting. The second is an Aluminum token...
Thanks, its my second one. The first you cant read the date but its obviously the later type. This one grades fine-VF, which is interesting most are worn smooth. This years been a pretty good year for "good" finds. Now if I could just find some gold!. Good luck everyone!
Hit a festival area just to see what I could pull. $6.45 in change. One pendant, 1 wheat a 1958, but the nice find was a 1927 Standing liberty quarter!!. The area has been worked over but that you never know just what's been walked over. Good luck all!
Sorry no pics saw another set with box, for $150, I got this set at a rummage sale free as it was the last day. Its a carving set for meat, I wondered if any antiques guys have any idea of value. Condition is excellent. The knife says H Cromwell Criterion (model?) and Sheffield ( I know this is...
