    Thanks CWN. You don't realize how fast these relics pile up until the year is over. But we are getting a late start this year. I would have been detecting at least 3 or 4 times already.

    Hey Bruce, thanks. I bet we do meet up at a park since I'm gonna try and do some more of that type of hunting this year. I need to get more clad so I don't end up with under $50.00 again lol

    Thanks Carver. I didn't do a lot of close ups this year for some reason. We are spoiled here in New England. After a while you only do a partial happy dance when you pull out an old copper. But I would dance like a chicken in a hot bowl of soup, if I found a gold coin lol

    That is a very impressive year of incredible finds.

    I remember many of these posted and just drooled viewing them individually.

    Your copper count is incredible. One of my favorites was the silver cane handle and, of course, it goes without say, on the GW!!!

    Awesome year.

    Thanks Brian. Anytime you want to come up, just PM us a bit earlier so we can find a spot. It's hard work and boring compared to parks, but the rewards go up in age and history.

    Thanks Greg, We get a lot of colonial and post colonial buttons up here. I guess the people back then loved buttons lol I've got probably close to 2 thousand of them

    You may not have them sites there, but your best bet to increase your button and old coin count is to hang around the donut shop (or wherever the old guys hang out) and bring some of your finds there to look at. After a while the people next to you may show an interest in what you have and you can ask them to hunt their properties lol Old houses or the older section of your town should give you some quality targets.

    Thanks Mike. If the 30+ inches of snow ever melts, I may just find something this year after all lol

    So what are you doing sitting by the fireside watching the snow and reminicing about the good ole' days?!

    You did make some great finds this year, congrats!

    And thanks for all of your help this (or actually last) year. Hopefully we can get together and detect some this season. I've been doing A LOT of research. now I just have to go scout the areas to see what is actually there NOW. I've been to a few, some look promising, others paved over, but still a lot on the list to find.
    2014 Goals: 20 Silver, 5 Large Coppers, 1 Gold Coin (not anticipating being able to detect much this year; NEW BABY HERE!!)
    So Far: (0) Silver; (2) KG, LC 1807; (2) IH; (3) Buff


    2013 Total: 36 Silver; 5LC (including 1 FUGIO)
    2012 Total:101 Silver; 11 LC

    Mr Rob, you are still alive too lol All I can do is sit around and dream of last year. At this rate I may not even detect once this year Hope some of your sites pan out for you Doesn't it make you mad when a great site is now a parking lot
