Go Up Go Down

I got my first detector back in the 80`s. First 2 items I dug up was a mickey mouse spoon and an old pewter clown pencil sharpener that still had part of a pencil broken off inside. I still have both items. I had the detector a few years it quit working and just got back into detecting last year again. I don`t get to go as often as I like because I work a fulltime job and a part time job. You will have days you do good and days you don`t find much of anything. Take the time to do a little research to find the oldest parks etc in your area. Yesterday decided to take the dog and head to a local park. Well lets say it was chilly only 47 degrees and had a 55 mile an hour wind. Dog it took him less than 5 minutes and he was ready to get in the car and get out of the wind. It took me about 10 minutes and called it quits was just miserable out in the wind.

Just a short comment on your finds.
Not bad, but the "Chomped" Lincoln cents are the newer ones and are almost entirely Zinc.
Depending on soil conditions they will deteriorate to a mear "Halo" in the ground.
The "halo" is the oxidized remenants of an object that has in a word dissappeared.
Leaving nothing but a trace behind that some metal detectors will still pick up. Teach

Those zinc cents can get real toasty to be sure. You should see some that come from the sea shores. Some of those are not much more than "White" discs that you can crumble with a "Pinch" of your fingers. 

BTW: Keep going your'e finding "Stuff".
