Hard lessons are the best and only kind for some people . WTG !

Looks like there is a heaven ! 🤯 Thx for posting . Did you go there you son of the beach ?😎

You hit a motherlode of IHPs without a doubt , WTG G-hound ! Those coins were green with envy ! Hope you end up with enough to fill a 50c roll . And a V-nick too 🤩 Get out the red paint , that spot needs an X. Geeze , a genuine hippie chamber pipe ! I'm guessing that location might be in the Woodstock NY area ? Was there any scent of sandalwood incense ? I've seen a lot of those hanging out of the dash tray or laying around backstage..... the stainless screen indicates late 70s IIRC all brass before that .Occasionally aluminum foil with pinholes LOL. Soak it in isopropyl for a few days and you might even be able to take it apart . All those head shops only sold products to be used with tobacco. It's true I tell ya ! Why can I remember things from decades ago but not where my keys went since an hour ago?.....nevermind , I might have a clue .🙄

Gotta agree with sohN . 🥸 Good soil conditions. I Never saw an IHP in a condition like those except at a coin shop/show here uptah camp..👍

Go Go Get'em Gadget !

Back to the thawing 1700s site in the woods. No detecting though , we just walked around planning out how to clear out the old 1700s foundation. Sight found the outlines of the thing , about 25'x40' ,(so it's likely a barn?) Full of water till the ground thaws mo deepah . Along with a lot of small stuff , homeowner wants to keep some on one side cuz it flowers out . There's plenty of horizontal to deal with arrrrgh. There are also a couple of huge trees growing in the middle of it (a cherry tree but we're not going to chop it down Mr Stihl will.. For now. 😏They have a stacked firewood future. We'll have to use loppers for most of the rest , it just tangles in the chainsaw. Going to leave the stuff between the foundation and the stage road . I predict we will find a huge chest full of we'll see. Headphone update : the 800 headphones are still chugging along perfectly and I have a new micro switch in the case with the 540 pair that soon will be running too. ! Still going to try out the M&Ds on a sunny day as well.

Some really nice keepers to end your streak ! Love seeing those Zippo's come up. And a man in the star ! Maybe another or even a man in the moon one still waiting ? And by the looks of the rest , a massive spring cleaning of that site for next time . Time well spent. A lot of rocks on the surface too , yer boots got a workout no doubt.

Good news ??? I did some research on the smiley butterfly pendant. Maybe an earring? Anyhoo the ID is it's a Death Head Moth . And some of the rest of the info was somewhat disturbing !🙄 Death Moth Symbolism Cultural Significance Death moths hold a significant place in various cultures, particularly in Native American culture and mythology. As a symbol, the death moth represents change, transformation, and the cycle of life. In some cultures, this creature is considered an omen of death, while in others, it signifies hope. But that's not the good part. I found it over by the now thawed out race track ! 🤩

Welcome to the crew SteveP ! I'm a bit too far away to do any hunting with you but good luck with your new 900 !🖖

The answer is in the same as what we have experienced with our computers . Detectors are a pale comparison to modern computing power IMO so this is all sorta-kinda . As Simon points out with his Algo as an example . It does work , up to a point . The pace of development of faster hardware would probably always be the hurdle stumble (brick wall?) for that type of system . The ever increasing processing hunger of each new app software revision would eventually (already?) be choked out by the earlier , now a "dinosaur" chip hardware in the machine . I'm probably also a dinosaur in my tron chops too 🤔 arrrrrgh. I'd just be happy if they came out with a transporter function to bring the targets effortlessly to the surface . ( I'm sure it's already prototype'd out and they just need a much more powerful battery to be developed! 😎 And of course gold will be the key element that makes those possible , in more ways than one.)

Desert Storm ?! Are you sure you're old ? I was thinkin' Nam ! (which I also missed by "that much" 2 days) , I was very lucky! Many played important roles behind the lines too. I remember the many friends and even teachers lost .........but yeah you should get a ring too. I guess karma is taking care of that for you now though 🤩🖖

Welcome to the crew Andy ! Thx for deciding to bring all your experience to the knowledge pool on D/P !🤠 I bet you have some great campfire tales from the hunts .

Skuh kuh kuh kuh yeah , the only coin they'll likely see is from all the ad accounts. Your coins sink them in the hole ! A Grand Poobah it is fer sure . You in the brotherhood should all get big fat 2 ozt of 24k diamond rings IMO ! TYFYS

Sweet ring 350 . And 4 silvers too! Red and green Christmas coins .....is there no end to it ? 🥸 You made a good call moving to that neighborhood without a doubt ! And one more thing . My guess on the royal secret is something the dairy queen did as a teen , possibly with a pirate 🏴‍☠️ from Oak Island ? 😏 👍🖖

Impressive collection LDK ! 👍
