Thread: Hello from Shiloh Tn

    Hello from Shiloh Tn

    How's everyone, 53 year old novice detector here. If you'll look at a map of Shiloh park just to the West you'll see owlcreek that's my stomping grounds. Been detecting about 5 years found several Minnie balls, round balls, buttons, even got some poker chips and a tip off a sword scabbard. Figured I'd hang out here awhile.
