Three Months Metal Detecting Finds

Haven't been able to get out so I made a video showing my finds over the 3 months I've been metal detecting, mostly out of frustration, but it's nice to recap.

Pennies, Silver Plate and a Bottle

Haven't been out much, the weather's been pretty shite, though I think my latest finds will keep me pretty satisfied for awhile, just nice to find some older coins in my backyard.

One thing I didn't expect when beginning this game was the amount of cutlery I would find, most of it's been silver plate as well, but it would be very nice to find some sterling.

I'm pretty chuffed with the little bottle I found as well, it's kind of perked my interest in bottles now, though I really can't seem to find anything about it, don't think it's very old, but it would be cool to know what it was used for.

I really don't know when I'll be back out, though if the circumstances arise I'm really keen to get back to the beach, so hopefully my next video will be from there.

A Few Firsts While Metal Detecting

Got my first threepence and British penny on this hunt as well as a Fijian 5 cent piece, the penny is my oldest coin so far at 1917.

Fijian 5 Cent.

Got these on my latest hunt which resulted in a lot of junk, no coins and I haven't been able to find much information on the spoon and key pictured below, by the way that's my first key ever.

A Hand Full Of Coins And Some Junk

Got out for a quick backyard hunt this past Sunday, nothing to exciting, but I'm glad I'm finding a lot of coins. I'm really starting to get a feel for the Fisher F2, I'm almost at the point where I feel I can pass on a target based on the LCD and sound, getting a little tired of digging milk caps.

Metal Detecting Finds For The Day, Mostly Junk

Managed to get out for a quick hunt, no video this time, just a photo of my finds. Mostly junk, no coins but I did manage to get another milk token. Hopefully after a good clean I'll find some branding on the objects, love researching that stuff.
