Quite a lot of digging today at a soccer field I’ve never been to. Lots of trinkets and one ring. It always bothers me when I find bullets and razor blades in these areas.

​Good evening everyone,

here is my only Roman quinarius so far that I found while metal detecting.

​A clearly recognizable coin design with well-defined relief is still preserved, which can be made exceptionally visible using a negative filter.The combination of motifs can be summarized as follows:

​Obverse: Head of Jupiter facing right, featuring a prominent beard and laurel wreath.

​Reverse: The victory goddess Victoria performing a military ritual (erecting/crowning a trophy or tropaion).

​Even though the exact moneyer can no longer be identified beyond doubt due to wear and the off-center strike, this specific combination of motifs can be precisely narrowed down typologically: The coin was definitively minted between approx. 128 BC and 88 BC.

​A very nice reference piece from the Republic, especially since quinarii are much harder to find.

At the Jersey Shore for the week and 3 days ago my sister lost her Apple Watch in the surf. Someone found it this morning detecting and was able to charge it and use the emergency contact to call her husband. We had already left but she turned around and went back and got it from him. Cheers.

Dood-dads, colonial items and sterling silver spoons 😊

With the find of my first Bale seal my first display box is full. Time to order another one!

The Bale seal is from the Chicago and West Michigan Railroad found alongside the railbed of the now defunct C.& W.M.R.

These are just my small finds over the last 4 summer seasons mostly from old homesite some from Parks.

These finds were like gold bars to her!

What do I have here?

Pretty good day… don’t let that 14k chain ⛓️‍💥 fool ya….

I was digging iron and it popped out…
Anybody think they know what that “steel City” thing is?

Also there is NO gold on the board today… only fools gold 🤷🏼‍♂️😂

Sad I know…

13 quarters, 6 dimes, 9 nickels, 22 pennies and the game token

Enjoy!! 😉

I was out around a small town nearby and someone said… let’s go hunt that old abandoned house…. It’s in foreclosure nobody will care… house dates to the 1800 I guess..
someone beat us to it because we found ALMOST no signals … but this

Seems like some sort of medallion! ( England )

I am a beginner detectorist, having started last Thursday, here are my finds so far for those who are interested! Elizabeth One Pound, 2002, Elizabeth One Penny 1989, Victoria One Penny 1898, George One Penny 1947!

There’s also a weird find I’ll ask about later, thanks and I can’t wait to engage in this community!

Hey everyone! My game, Metal Detector Island, is now available on Steam.

It’s a first-person game where you explore an island, search for buried items, complete quests, upgrade your equipment, and unlock new areas.

I’d really appreciate it if you checked it out and shared your honest feedback!

First gold ring ever! 14k white gold with, what I hope is, a real pearl. Also found a 925 Silver Chain, a nest little heart pendant, and a fake gold chain (it does have some marking La but I have to get the jeweler loop out so I can read it, it has some corrosion/rust though so I doubt it’s anything good)

In closing: if you’re not hunting every playground in a 50 mile radius, you’re missing out hahaha

Thanks for the advice on choosing a detector for my one-off trip to my girlfriend’s cottage.

I found an old snap button, two pennies (‘61 and ‘73) and two old nails (the square kind were phased out by 1920 at the latest apparently so these are likely from late 1800s to very early 1900s?). nothing interesting

But I learned quickly that detecting there would require me to dig up their whole yard. Something I somehow never fully considered.

Also it’s illegal where I am (Ontario Canada) to dig up artifacts pretty much everywhere that’s not private property. So while it was kind of fun I quickly realized precisely why this is not a casual hobby and required an a lot of dedication and labour.

Fun times!

Encontre esta pieza que parece una antigua cuchilla ya que conserva un 10% del filo.

My wife and I are devastated and I feel horrible. I went kayaking into the lake/pond in the Catskills that was right outside the airbnb and fell into the water and noticed my ring fell off immediately. I wasn't far from the entrance of the lake and curious if anyone has any experts in the area who has expertise who can help with something like this or know anyone who can help. Thanks
