Greetings
Hello Buckeye Searchers- The next meeting will be on Thursday, September 11th, 2025, 7PM at Ellenwood Recreation Center, located at 124 Ellenwood Ave in Bedford. Find of the Month entries must be posted by 7:30PM to allow plenty of time for voting. You get a free raffle ticket for each find submitted (limit 4). We will also have the monthly raffle and 50-50 drawing.
If someone wants to give a short presentation on a topic, we would welcome that. Since last month’s meeting was cancelled bring your finds since the August meeting for the FOTM contest.
If you have not been paying attention, gold is currently over $3600 / oz and silver is over $42 / oz. If you have been stacking gold and/or silver, congratulations. It doesn’t look like the metals are going to be going down anytime soon, so we’ll see how this affects the club regarding prizes needed for raffles and seeded hunts.
Good luck on your hunts,
Bernie, Terry & Tammy

- If you are thinking of selling your silver coins, please remember to contact club VP Terry Stahurski.

The club is usually looking to buy silver coins for raffles, hunts and prizes.
- If you have a detector or accessory you would like to sell you may bring it to any of our meetings and display it for everybody at the meeting to see and buy. All transactions will be responsibility of the buyer and seller.
- Please be aware you can now purchase raffle tickets using 90% silver coins! The exchange rate is: Silver Dollar – 25 tickets, Silver Half Dollar – 10, Silver Quarter – 5, silver dime – 2. These will be used for prizes/hunts so please no damaged or extremely worn coins.
