You Ever Do This?


Recommended Posts


I keep a photo record of my key finds and store them in either a display case or labeled plastic bags.  The photos help jog my memory on the finds' site and date, too.  I should keep a written journal too, but I'm just not that organized. :rolleyes:

I keep an Excel spreadsheet with lots of information (date, # hrs detected, detector+coil used, weather, location, finds + running total of different coin find categories).  When I go West I do keep zip-lock bags of relic finds, and when I'm 'on top of my game' I put an index card in saying where they were found.

But I also have way too much junk/trash finds that need to be pared down....

Chuck A., I do try to leave the dirt out, though....  ?

I have always left the trash in a bag and left it in one of the trash cans at the park, or if I am in the creeks take the trash to the next gas station and leave it there. Then I take the good stuff home with me and put it in a can or a jar until it adds up to a good amount to spend.

I keep hand-written notes of my hunts. I note the machine used, the location and any notable finds. I'll also provide clad totals (not just total amount, but how many of each coin).

The jar with the rancid whale oil?
