Thanks Gents.
Dan you are right on all accounts. If you go by coins as an indicator, 1738 is the earliest and 1843 is the latest. 11 coins were from the 1700s and 18 coins were from the 1800 to...
A KG is always a nice first for the season Rebel.
I was able to sniff out an 1843 Large Cent and a 1740 1 real today. I haven't had a copper and a real on the same hunt in some time. They were about 2 feet apart right up close to the cellar hole's...
Good work there Jared. I like the looks of that yellow stuff.
Fair question Digger. My wife changes her hair style once a week so I have no way of knowing if the hairspray would last 10 years on her like it does on the button. ;)
Not one, but two! WOW! WOW!
I dug one about 10 years ago John. It was flakey in some places. Sprayed it good with my wife's best hair spray and it is still holding up fine.
Nice! I don't often pass on digging a big iron signal either.
If that New Madrid fault ever slips again, YIKES. That quake was so strong that it made church bells ring as far away as Boston.
Nice! I know the LCs don't come easy in your neck of the woods.
Good to have you Terry. Looking forward to your posts. I have a buddy that did tours in Kosovo and Afghanastan. When he got out, detecting really helped him cope when things got tough.
Good work there John! Yeah yhose Liberty Caps are like hen's teeth. You dug some realy nice relics too. That token doesn't show up very often either.
That is cool !
Good work there Rebel. That is a long day. Those 12-15 hour detecting marathons just don't appeal to me as much as they once did. ;)
Love the tag Tony. What machines were you and your dad using 56 years ago?
Agreed. Calabash has helped a lot of folks. Although I don't agree with everything he put out there, I learned a lot from him. Especially when it came to the differences in approach when going from...
The wet ground helped unhide a few more buttons. The consensus on the ship button is that it's a Jacksonian that lost its rim.

Digger, that's the one corner of the state I haven't been to. Moab region is great. I've also driven from SLC up into Idaho many times. Mormon culture dominates of course. Friendly folks that are...
That is a heck of a way to start the year! It's been a long time since I had a 5 copper day. Love that spoon. Just the one conestoga bell? You are slipping John.
Nice! I would to find a Liard someday!
Nice silver. Love the token as well!
That's a nice one!
I like how you think Bucknut!
It was cold this morning with the windchills in the teens but the sun was out for the first time in a while!
Dug this 1801 Draped Bust this morning. Was happy to get a date off of it. I had my...
That is a nice buckle! It's a bonus when they are made with a brass pin and they actually swivel.
