After work and a dentist appointment I had 90 min before dark so I went back to my park :cheesysmile: The half real is in spectacular shape and was DEEP :shocked02: I've found many, many musket balls at this park over the years...I think they must have mustered there in the Revolution.

Hi all, A bit of park hunting this weekend. I didn't measure how deep the draped was but it was down there. I did measure one of the wheats..9in. Thanks for looking!:thumbsup01:

Last weekend my finds included a Monopoly hat and a Barber half...today the rains stopped and I found a Barber quarter and a Monopoly race car...AT A DIFFERENT SITE!!:shocked02: After the rains ended (remnants of Michael) I headed to the park I did so well last weekend to find they were having...

I can't seem to find many crotal bells :huh: ...and have found exactly zero large GW buttons :crying01:...but I've found 13 Fatties. :cheesysmile: How 'bout you?

I've been hunting a few parks this weekend and have done very well (other post in Relics section). This morning my luck continued with a 1902 Barber half, 1839 seated dime, and three wheats. Thanks for looking!

Happy Weekend! :happydance02: The last month I've been hunting for a foundation that runs a 300 year old farm. I've been finding lots of cool stuff but have to give up the goods. Yesterday morning and this morning I finally got some Drew time in! This was a public freakin park!!! I know...

Started out at dawn...felt great, nice breeze 71, manageable humidity...then for some reason fog rolled in and it turned oppressively humid. I'm not certain why I'm giving a weather report :dontknow: The copper was at 10in!! I saw a cottontail 5min before I found that cufflink! That's today's...

Hi everyone, This morning started very pleasantly...sunny, normal humidity...then all heck broke lose a few hours later. 150% humidity moved in, then buckets of rain as I got back to my car. A few towns north of me had a tornado! :shocked04: I started at a park that I've been hitting and...

The woods are overgrown with unreal amounts of ferns and most of the fields are growing for the second cut, so off to the parks! Tues morning I hit a field that produced the ball button and buttons....then we got a soaking rain that night. Yesterday was like a dream in the park. :daydream: I...

Had a pleasant visit today at the Nathan Hale homestead. I thought the following pics would be of interest to our members.

Hey everyone, Every morning this week I got up with the sunlight and headed out. Mostly a park but also an old field. I've learned 5-tones pretty well on the Equinox and now moving to 50 tones. I'm told it has more modulation which I miss from my T2 in 2-tones. I think the ring is silver...

Anyone know what that buckle frame was used for? It's flat, heavy duty, and old. Thanks!

Bucket-lister!!! Started slow this morning as I went over areas I've already been...just to double check. Got a small flat button. Then the adjacent field started producing! First another beat copper, then the early shoe buckle, then ten feet away from the buckle I thought I had the missing...

Hey everyone, I've only found one seated half and it was a BEAT counterfeit. This one is really nice! :cheesysmile: The pictures don't do it justice. The owner wants to bring it to his historical society meeting tomorrow then give it to me. I'll take a cleaned up pic when I get it back. I...

The weather was perfect today so I headed out for a short afternoon hunt. Who am I kidding, I don't care what the weather is...I'd be hunting anyway :lol: I dug six targets...five were coins. Three were coppers, a clad quarter, a memorial, and a 1960s pocket knife rounded out the day. The...

I've been hitting parks of late and dug a blank copper at 10in. The ring is silver and the seated is 1868. Thanks!

I've been busy the last few weeks but have been able to squeeze a number of short hunts in. I'd guess the sterling locket is from the 20s or 30s. Couldn't locate the nurse. Don't know the particulars on the CT copper. Thanks for looking! PS OH WAIT, I wanted to say that I found that copper...

Once again, I joined Al, Mike, and Steve for some digging on a hundred year old golf course. The police stopped to question us, as did the previous owner, but the course is now in Al's family and he has free "range." Al and I work on "detectorist" time...8am means 7:45...so we started early...

I look forward to my short after-work hunts... gets me through the day :) Still trying to crack the EQX code but it's keeping my attention. I'm working the hayfields before the grass grows. The LC is a large letter/mature head. The fatty is an 1863. Thanks!

I find these these with great regularity. There must have been wood under them. Any ideas?
