Have been detecting around 15 years, unfortunately first decade or so I sold my finds, wasn't really thinking. Didn't really need the spare $$ and don't now, so about 5 years ago I decided to keep my finds [still sold a few here and there], and this is the result.

Not bragging, far from it, I know many of you blow me out of the water with finds. Also not including shots of my found silver coins, quite a few but nothing really special. Also have a batch of silver and gold chains kept in baggies to prevent tangles not pictured, but this is the bulk of my pm finds last half decade.

Not some of the gold looks like silver, some of the silver looks like gold, plated I imagine. While I have them out going to do a diamond check, usually do that routinely but sometimes I forget, most of these are tossed into the box and forgotten.

Majority of finds are beach finds, with quite a few from tot lots, ground dug comes in a distant 3rd.

I have sold all my gold & silver over the years, but my "keepers box" is still pretty full. I sold enough gold in the first years of the millennium to buy a collector's car and sold my silver & gold to help my retirement. If I still had it all I would have an amazing collection. Here is a look inside my box.

I have sold quite a bit of finds, I keep the ones that mean the most though. I don't currently have a picture, but I will get some of it together later and snap one. Great finds everyone!

wow nice stash, sure don't need to be precious metal to be keepers. One of my fav finds is what I thought to be a civil war era IHP, looks like that from the front but on the back is info on a store, its a token.

I agree, one of those civil war tokens is high on my list. Maybe one day. Mark
