Got out nice and early this am to a balmy 24 degrees. Headed back out to an old spot of mine. Finds were tough but was able to snag the SLQ (1917 Variety 1), 2 Merc's (1917, 1918-D), Dog Tag & 2 buttons at the 1st sight. Decided to head down the old road to another site and as I was walking I...

Boy was the wind blowing yesterday, gusts had to be in the 40's. Had to keep an eye to the sky for falling branches or a tree. Sure glad I brought my balaclava with me to keep the old mug warm. Went back to the site where I pulled the flintlock hammer 2 weeks ago. Was pretty slim picking but...

Thanks Guys! Was a fun day. I really pounded that site with the stock coil & switched over to the 6x10 DD. Will definitely be going back there. Thanks Don! Here are some more pic's for you. I would think the counterfeits would not be circulated like that a it would have called attention to...

Had the day off from work & went to a new spot. Weather was so much better than the last few days. Boy this was one hot spot! Got a KGI Hibernia Double Strike Error, CT Copper & a Draped Bust, along with the Flintlock hammer with the flint still in it! Nabbed some more buttons as well. On...

Thank for the comments Guys! Here you go Dan, thanks in advance for your help!

We she keeps on giving. Coughed up another copper, Tombac button, drawer pull & the suspender clip. Almost ready to give this spot a 2x a year hunt (Early Spring & Fall). Finds are tougher & tougher to get. Hit 2 other sites along the way & nabbed this very small pewter button which looks...

Got out for a bit to a new site on Sat. Nabbed a few goodies. Looks like I got a KG II but not so sure as it's pretty smooth. I think I can see a bust facing to the left, what say you guys? Also got a Silver plated spoon that says Clegg's Café on it, was able to find a place in the 1901 NC...

Got together with Frank today to check out some new sites I had found. Not much in the finds dept. but got an 1899 IH, 1910 Wheatie & a unreadable Wheatie. Avoided 2 Yellow Jacket nests. One Frank & I had passed over with out disturbing but when I had gone back I had kicked up some leaves &...

Got out today for a totally gross hunt. :lol: Temps & dew points were both in the 70's. It's been a while since I went back to my not so virgin site, so I figured today would be a good day to go there. Nabbed 3 more coppers (1788 CT Copper, Draped Bust & Smoothie). Upon cleaning the smoothie...

Exactly! Found a DB that was also beaten up as well.

Went back to the site I was at last weekend & snagged a few more coins and relics. 1835 LC, 16, 18 & 23 Wheaties & a no date Buffalo as well as this cool NY Municipal Police Coat Button (1860-70) Spoon was laying on top of the ground as well as the eye glass lens. Anybody know what these 2...

WTG on the finds especially the Skilling. I found one last summer!

Went to some new sites today. Was on the lookout for any yellow jackets nests & was lucky to avoid 3 of them today. Seems like we're in for an early fall as they seemed all over the place. 2 Of them were in the walls of the cellar holes & 1 was in the ground by the frame of a truck. 1st hit...

Been away since last Sat with the Wife & Boys up in the beautiful White Mountains. We stayed at a nice Bed & Breakfast in North Conway that received a land grant from KG III back in 1771 and is still in the same family today. Went to visit the Lost River, Flume, Canoe down the Saco River and...

Just wanted to get an opinion what might be a better program to use at cellar holes. I've been using CJ for sometime now and done very well but wondered what I might be missing using Relic Mode. As a base let's use Fox's CJ vs Fox's Relic as the base for comparison and go from there. Thanks...

Got of for the 1st time in 2 weeks back to an area I've been to before. After looking at the maps I decided to follow the old road in search of a house on the maps. Was really warm today & went thru 2 liters of water. Found the house turned on the tector made 2 swings & bam 1st flat button...

Got out for a bit yesterday afternoon, as we have summer hours at work. Went back to my not so virgin spot & was able to nab another copper & a musket ball. Targets are getting hard to come by but I know there are more targets there as I wander further & further out from the hole.

I've been continuing to hit some areas that I've wanted to hit for some time now. Most of these areas really haven't produced, but hey I gotta say & least I tried. Getting a bit warmer now & am really glad I bought that camel pack. Sure beats taking off the backpack & having to pull out my...

Got out to my old virgin site. Seeing it is on a rise it dries out pretty fast, so after all the rain we got I figured I should hit it up before it would dry out. Was able to sneak out 3 more coppers (KGII, KGIII & some other KG). Also got 2 more buttons, part of a shoe buckle & the biggest...
