Wow! 6 very nice finds !

That is beyond cool. Incredible finds.

Nice! That's 10 years worth of silver for me.

According to AI and AI is never wrong :rolleyes:: For a high-performance, all-terrain finds pouch that meets your specific requirements for durability, drainage, and specialized tool storage, the Detect-Ed Treasure Pouch 2.0 and the Garrett All Terrain Dig Pouch are the top recommendations...

Very nice rosette Dan! 1,000 dug coppers is more than a milestone. That is a landmark! I don't know anyone remotely close to that. Think about this, anyone starting out detecting today has a ZERO percent chance of finding 1,000 coppers in their lifetime. Even if they find a pot with 900 coppers...

I missed this one. Trimes don't show up enough under my coil, only have one. Make sure you bring a large enough finds pouch for all those staters Dan. I'm retiring the end of this year. A UK trip next year is on my to do list. Save a few staters for me please.

The only thing that I can think of that would be better than finding a couple of gold staters is finding a pot full of them. Good for you Todd! Your friends in the UK won't let you back in if you keep that up. ;)

Dan, I have a 100, 180 and the 200 foam blocks. The 100 makes quick work on tombacs. Just lay the block flat, place the tombac on the pad and using various degrees of pressure, just move the button around on the pad until you get that crud layer off. Then I might switch to the 180 or the 220 to...

Dan, a Liberty Cap for your first copper of the year is a good omen! Tough call on to further clean or not. If I was to do anything I might burnish it a bit with my 220 grit foam sanding block. It is slow going but very precise.

Hey Thanks guys! Reb, it seems that these days it site like that are about the only place to finds some goodies. Tony, that site was active from about 1750 to 1850, so any time in that span. Dan, I think between the carpenter ants destroying the oaks, fuzzy aphids and nematodes killing the...

This is a cellar hole site I've been hunting for 12 years. It used to be wide open with plenty of room to swing a coil but now you can be standing 2 feet from it and not see it. I somehow managed to pull an 1827 Matron and a nice stick pin right from that tangled mess. The Matron was on edge...

Good score on the DB Rebel. I'll take that trigger guard any day as well.

Great projectile!

Awesome!!

That is so cool looking!
