    Heading to Bavaria for 8-day Road Trip!

    Hi Friends,
    Me and 5 detecting buddies are heading to Bavaria on Oct 9th for 8 days of nothin' but detecting, drinking beer, and enjoying great Bavarian cuisine! This is our third trip and in the past we have found Bronze Age, Celtic, Roman, Medieval, and Renaissance coins and relics. I have been stuck at home for 6 months now and it will be great to get out and enjoy some free time. Here's a pic of the "coin spill" of 174 hammered silver coins all dating to the 1200's that we found last time we went.
