We are going to have a best find of the month contest for this month now the weather has turned spring like (finally).

The prize will be a 1992 proof set from the US Mint.

You can wait until the end of the month or post good finds as you find them as you can enter as many finds (only found during the month of May 2016) as you want.

Good Luck out there detecting - Happy Hunting!

Boy this is a nice almost 15 year old proof set. So far Bearbait is the only one who has entered. The rest of you just going to let him take it?

The weather is supposed to be nice over the Memorial Day weekend so I hope you can get out and post some of those finds!

I've detected a few times with Raven at a nice place on Lake Champlain and had some nice finds.  Here's an 1899 Indian head cent, a 10K plated signet ring, and a broken gold ring from May 7th.

I've been waiting for George to reply with his vote for the best find but so far no luck.  I vote for your finds myself Duane.  If I don't hear back from him by the end of the week I am going to declare you the winner based on my vote alone.  

George who do you vote for?
