In for the gold...
Any gold found??

Not me, not once.
Silver and clad though.

Any gold found??

I do some black sand panning at a creek just outside of Blairsville GA. Pulled about a quarter ounce out of that creek in the last year.

This one came from Tombstone Arizona.

It's a Whitney Revolver. Almost in restorable condition.

We disassembled, cleaned and reassembled the gun.

Notice the toaster in the background.

It works and we can’t tell mom

Somebody will probably come along and offer you tree fiddy for it. Thanks.

It might be a murder weapon

I have found anything from a Hoskins artillery shell with lead Sabbath still on it, min balls, pain bullets, silver spoons, revolutionary cannon fuse holder, solder's buttons, v- nickels to walking liberty dollars, I have an At pro, White's coin master to a desoro sidewinder,
I'm as happy as going detecting as I enjoy going out looking for arrowheads, indian relics . ..

I bought a used whites coin master in the late 80s and used it here and there. Found coins a couple of old watches, cheap ring or two and tons of junk. I bought it because I had lost my wedding band and always thought it was in the front yard. I found it the day I got the detector. It has since gave up the ghost and just haven’t replaced yet.

I like the AT Pro. I'm pretty sure that will be my next detector.
