    Upstate CT Frost Level Report Needed

    Looking to head upstate CT next week & wondering what the digging conditions are like. Right now just above the Merritt Parkway it's about 1" in some spots while others due to the rain we had it's probably 2" or more.

    Got another Copper today!

    Was out today hitting up an old site of mine & nabbed the spoon. Love the detail on the back, guessing it's colonial as it's pewter. Does anyone have a link to spoon back designs. On the way out I hit 1 last site for about a 1/2 hr. & nabbed my 2nd Copper of the season, looks like it's a KG III.

    Coil Wire Issues

    Hey All. Just wondering if any of you have had the same issues I've had. Seems every few years where the grey wire goes into the coil I notice thru the flexible black plastic protector the grey wire cover separates & you can see the white fiber wrapping or the white wires showing...

    On the board for 2018!

    Got out with Frank yesterday and nabbed my 1st copper for 2018, which is almost completely toast. I do see some letters but too far gone to ID. Nabbed the shoe buckle a few weeks ago as well well as some misc finds from the end of 2017. HH, Roger

    Colonial Silver Buckle!

    Got out yesterday to a new spot way out in the boondocks. Was loaded with ferns all over the place but was able to nab this keeper. Sadly some of the silver flaked away but was able to save most of it. Will need to go back in the winter. Had to keep an eye out for bear as their droppings...
