Good lookin' finds !
I was out this morning in a North wind and 8* with my shovel too.
The snow shovel.....🙄 all I found was a tiny Jack Russell puppy with very cold paws....and a nice coat of bumpy ice under 4" of the dreaded white.

"Good boy Legend , here's your biskit !"👍

Well , your "what not to do" is working for you ! 👍
You gave me an idea how I can find more silver coins faster too !
Just buy the coins instead of another detector .😏

Do you take green stamps ?
-
Welcome aboard ukk9 !
No matter how long you've been detecting , you'll learn something here !
Good luck with your new D2 !

I ask questions but everybody reads , those answers help all of us.
I'm going to spend a lot of time detecting the fairgrounds this year + getting to know the people that run it and all the farmers that participate .... 😏
-
Oh Ayuh thx !
Do ya ask those permissions if you can use them as a reference contact after a few good hunts ?
-
WOW Compass ! That's a monster find pic !
I'm out but LIKE , OH MY , LIKE
Return that and major karma points are yours .
Don't find the owner and , well ,instant karma right there yup yup !
Well worth the cold fingers ,,,,my fingers are cold just from reading .....
Oh , yeah ,it's 2* two feet from me. 🙄

Out of likes this am !
Lots of dream finds......👍
And those dream permissions are how.
There was another colony here at Popham.~15miles from me.
Detecting it would be a dream permission.
It's a state park and rangers everywhere !
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh !
I did detect the tiny beach in front of it,,,,,obviously not the first to do that........😢
-
Another amazing batch of finds !
Maybe you should organize classes like our MD dealers do ?🤔
-
It sure is tiny , but not tiny enough for you this time !
Good gold find 🖖

Naaahhhh , don't have to feel sorry. Doing it for mom.
Besides, my old Cap is in Smithfield rubbing that heat in with daily texts ! LOL I heard about that 80* this morning at 8:30 . They were going over the bridge headed for the beach. Karma will show him though , the whole family is transferring to Omaha in 3 weeks. Oh my Goshk !
I wasn't complaining about the cold . It's actually been one of , if not the mildest winter I can remember up here . It's more a comment that I'm amazed that I was able to dig like it was summer yesterday ! The only time I ever did that in February uptah camp was in a snow pile looking for a diamond engagement ring for a friend . She knew where it was . My old Radio Shack detector got me close and because it was a blizzard it was found by shoveling all the snow under the coil into a plastic tub and putting it in front of a torpedo heater. The winter detectorist's secret pinpointing weapon. 😎
I grew up here . The older I get , the less I like it but do know how to live in it. Been living on wheels since '82 just to add a degree of difficulty....and I still haven't learned any better . But those wheels did get me a warm southern winter for a dozen years or so...which was awesome but makes it worse here now knowing what I'm missing ! 😍
Oh yeah PS it's 79* in the camper right now. Probably feels a lot like that beach did today........
-
I did get permission to detect the fairgrounds, And while you had a day at the beach @80* . I dug a few holes here @45* last night before it turned back to East Coast Alaska around midnight. 17* ~8" of white with a nice serving of sleet and freezing rain ,,,so far.
96 days till 6/1 .......

I rest my case.🖖
-
I hereby place my vote for permission king.🍀

Nice haul 👍
Finding either of those would make up for a lot of frozen fingers !
For the middle of winter any haul would be nice but this winter HAS been almost tropical,
NO ! but it sure hasn't been Arctic ,well except for that one night @-18*. No diggin' that mornin' ! I'm thawed out about 4-5" on almost bare ground everywhere.
Guess I should get out there today ,,,got ~12" comin' down the next couple of days 🙄

How would one go about creaming a possum?
How about......with a truck or car like everybody else 🥸?
I'm surprised there aren't more of the Roadkill Cafe's like we have uptah camp !
And yes , there are possums here too .
Personally , I never stopped for roadkill ,,,cafe' or otherwise....🤪
-
That ring is kinda snakey lookin ! 🤔
So why do I like it ?🤩
Hope to see you get a lot more out of those spots soon !
-
Nice lookin' tools Bootscrape !
Ya got me thinking about taking a grinder to my shovel to fancy it up a bit .
-
It sounds like you have some beach to cover😎
Good luck on the minus low tide !

🙄
The recent surge in detecting could easily turn into a surge of detectors for sale because of this new designation.
If the crown + museums were smarter they would hire detectorists to hunt for them instead !
