Metal Detecting a New Park with neswiper produces more Silver – www.metaldetectorx.com – It’s the same park that produced the legendary silver half dollar. Just as I suspected there were no more big silver discs in the area. Just my luck, I did not find the sweet spot of the place till near sunset. This area of the park produced the silver coin and the wheat penny. Once again we ran in to Metal Detector Bicycle Dude. We swapped a few more stories. We must have chatted for 20 minutes. Since …

Metal Detecting Another Modern Park – www.metaldetectorX.com – Metal Detector in modern park strikes fat silver. Amateur Treasure Hunting in the City at it’s finest. This is reality metal detecting. This location was chosen because it’s exactly the opposite of a place I would normally hunt. I tried to choose a location that a newbie would hit their first day out detecting. (any park will do) I tried to tap that old spirit of beginner’s luck. Remember those days? I think this hunt represents what anyone is capable of. – neswiper neswiper Minelab E-TRAC Mrs. Swiper: Minelab Xterra 305 BILL DRUMS – Bill is Not His Real Name. Bill plays in a half a dozen bands.

Metal Detecting, Almost Hit The BIG ONE – www.metaldetectorx.com – So close yet so far. Is the mint mark worn off, or was there never one to begin with? You be the judge. I know next to nothing about coins, but I know enough to see I came close to hitting the BIG ONE! (snicker) I found a new black soil area (second part of video). It could turn out to be a new secret honey hole. This discovery came at a good time, as the other location has been stripped to the bone. These are the lovely black soil areas, in which you can swing a few times without breaking the threshold. This jet black soil rubs off a silver coin like it’s attached via static electricity. There is nothing like it in metal detecting. – neswiper neswiper uses the Minelab E-TRAC & 18X15 SEF Coil, sunray X-1 Target Probe 1916D Mercury Dime – Silver Coins – Metal Detectors

Hi Everyone, Here are a few silver finds from the past week. Thanks for watching. HH Dave

Metal Detecting FAT Silver – www.metaldetectorX.com – This is likely the biggest chunk of silver I have found to date. I don’t have a scale, but it feels heavier than a silver half dollar. Turns out it is (was) an expensive antique. ARTICLE QUOTE ” This is a large brooch of a gracefully trotting horse with a small bezel-set turquoise for the eye and carriage complete with a movable wheel. It is a old piece of Mexican jewelry craftsmanship whose charm is in the anatomically accurate articulation of the fluid lines of the horse and carriage. This particular piece was probably made somewhere between 1915 and 1930′s. The hallmark reads, “Silver Made In Mexico”. I was told that it is at least 980 silver, and it does test at least 925. This was made by a Mexican artist either before or in the early days of Taxco when it was the center of the universe of the finest silver artisans and jewelry, and was sought by individual collectors, as well as fine retailers such as Neiman Marcus, Gumps, and Coro. William Spratling was responsible for inaugurating the concept of the silver taller where many artisans designed and produced exquisite silver pieces under one roof. Spratling began by employing a few craftsmen in his home, which grew to later become Taller de Las Delicias. He eventually had 100 artisans working for him, and spawned an entire cottage industry that set a higher standard for perfection in silver design and craftsmanship for years to come. The brooch is in extremely fine …
