Howdy folks! I finally got around to joining this forum. ::usaflag::

Hello Longhair ,welcome to the forum :waving: where you from and what machine you swinging??

[Longhair]

Well Del, I'm in the middle of nowhere here in Mid-Michigan. I have several detectors (Minelab & Fisher), hunt land and water, and belong to the Michigan Treasure Hunters MD club.
Divorced.....twice.
No kids.
And I live with my dog, barn cat, & a small herd of horses.

I also ride horses & sport bikes, hunt with everything I can get my hands on, and dive locally.
I make my living as a farrier (that's a horseshoer for those that don't know nuthin).

[del]

whats been your most memorable or best find yet Longhair??

[Longhair]

That's a tough one. I've been at this off and on for around 35yrs.
Here are a few of my favorites from the last couple years.

Hey Longhair, I'm glad you came over to AD. You were a voice of reason on another forum I used to frequent. You'll be a great addition to the nice folks here. Welcome!

[del]

some very outstanding finds Longhair , love the detail on the bank token :smitten:

[Longhair]

Thanks Del...and all.
The area that I live in was only settled in the mid 1830s, so finding that token in that condition was a thrill. I still can hardly believe that I found it in a park that everyone has pounded for years. It might have been the deepest coin find that I have ever dug (I almost gave up). It won me a FOTM award at that month's club meeting.

Welcome aboard Longhair from western MA. Some nice finds there. A farrier aye? :thinkingabout: We could have used you last year when we were trying to determine the age of some horseshoes that we thought may be from 1675 lol
