    Relics from the War of Polish Succession

    Hey diggers,
    I was able to get out last weekend to a spot about an hour from here. It's a forest area and on the German maps it's name translates to "French Trenches." This area corresponds with a French map from a battle in 1734. It is not a secret place and has been detected countless times over the years. The high tones are almost completely gone now and all that's left is deep iron signals. That's okay though because we like finding relics too. Between the 3 of us we found 7 cannonballs/grenades. I found my first complete hollow sphere hand grenade! Here is some pics before & after. Thanks for looking and happy hunting, Dave.
