Show & Tell Rings, gold, and silver finds through my years of metal detecting
Haven't been out as much as I'd like to lately so deciding to show off all the rings gold and silver I've found throughout my years of metal detecting. It's not impressive but being I only go where I can take my bike or walk to not so bad. I don't live on the coast or anything crazy so stuck to trashy parks and schools. But in a whole lot of work to have what I have lots and lots of hours out and sore legs as I'm someone who will stay out til I find something no matter how long it takes. My stubbornness pays off from time to time. I don't think I've found anything of a lot of value but I'll keep trying til it happens and regardless I know that's not what it's about I do enjoy the time out and have fun regardless.

How do I...? How dangerous is handling old, corroded lead while metal detecting?
Hey everyone!
Iām pretty new to metal detecting and still learning about the hobby.
Iāve been reading a bit about finding lead objects while metal detecting, and Iāve heard that old, corroded lead can be quite toxic.
However, I often see metal detecting videos where people pick up old lead objects with their bare hands like itās no big deal.
So Iām wondering, how dangerous is it really? Is briefly touching corroded lead actually a health risk, or is the danger mainly from accidentally ingesting lead dust or particles?
Do you guys use gloves when handling lead finds, or do you just wash your hands afterwards?
Since Iām still a beginner, Iād really appreciate any advice or personal experiences!
Greets yall

ID Request Monedas Macuquinas
Consideras que las macuquinas o macucas son aquellas monedas que todos deseamos? Por lo menos en América. Qué pasa cuando cruzamos el océano y en Europa aparecen monedas romanas, monedas mucho mÔs antiguas. Las macuquinas para ellos son tan interesantes como para nosotros? La antigüedad hace que esa moneda sea tan codiciada? Su valor numismÔtico y económico? O su rareza? Cuando encontré las primeras macucas, monedas mÔs modernas que antes me fascinaban pasaron a no generarme demasiada emoción. Que sentimiento es este? Es como perseguir un reto cada vez mayor y adictivo? Que opinas Detectorista? Les comparto dos piezas que aparecieron con el Manticore de Minelab. Profundas, escurridizas y olvidadas.

Gear Question My Metal Detector
I bought this off eBay almost 20 years ago (est), from a guy who lived near the Whiteās factory, worked there and repaired and tweaked them as a hobby. It has def made some GREAT finds for me. Still not quite sure what the added knobs do EXACTLY, (ideas?) but I just adjust them lightly until it sounds good on live testing and try not to move them much after the fact-only for depth.

Other Looking for website that shows old foundations from satellite
Hi everyone! I used to be active in one of the metal detecting subs awhile back one of my old accounts.
I remember there was a website people used that you could see foundational from satellite and it was black and white
Does anyone happen to know what Iām referring to? I canāt find it anywhere
Thanks!
