Hope this goes through! I've sent this out for the past few years. Great pattern for sleigh bells. Enjoy! Ray

Hey all, I'm up in the area until about New Years. Know of a couple of cellar holes if anyone would like to join me. Prefer to not dig solo in the woods these days. Also would be happy to travel a couple hours or more! Ray, formerly from Va.

Just want to say thanks to Dave and Todd for taking me out today. The weather was beautiful, just like the England scenery. I'm always amazed at how much land is out there, able to be hunted. Most of it seems to have been hunted already, but it's better than the paved area where I come from. I...

So I had the good fortune to go out hunting with CT Todd and GKMan/Gary today. We went to a cellar hole area that Gary had found. Apparently, though, someone had beaten us to it somewhat recently. I was lucky enough to find a couple of flat buttons, a spoon, and an 1847 largie that I think...

Just wanted to say thanks to Dan for having me along today, checking out some fields and cellar holes. It was nice seeing coinut/George again and a pleasure meeting OS Drew. Great group of guys. I hope you and George got some coins, Dan!

Yesterday, on my way out from the site where I dug a couple of state coopers, I dug this modern-looking pendant. I didn't think much of it at the time because it was covered with dirt, shallow, and small. This morning, I cleaned it up and found that one end had a slot. I used a screwdriver on...

I went out again today to where I found the Mass copper yesterday. If my hopes are correct, I think I found a Nova Constellatio!! It's got the rays and stars, but on the back all I can see are the letters RN I think. It looks like there are other possibilities like some sort of Vermont coin...

I finally found my first colonial copper!! It's a Massachusetts cent (thanks Dan for the ID help), but I can't make out the date. I found it about half a mile from a spot that Dave (Heavy Metal Nut) and Todd/ Thiltzy took me to a year or so ago. I'd found a couple of ox knobs in a dig or two...

So last week I went back to what's been my go-to place for the last 14 years or so. It's pretty much dug-out, but I still try. Finding one bullet would've made me happy, but I actually found 4, and not only that, but they were all different: one Minie ball, one pistol ball, one bucky ball...

Do you remember when you got your first machine and couldn't wait to go digging? Every time you got a new lead you were so excited and couldn't sleep that night? And what usually happened? It didn't turn out as planned. Well, fast forward 15 years or so and I've got a new lead and I'm a bit...

The PP has been traded. Looking to trade my Detector Pro Pistol Probe for a Minelab pin pointer. The pistol probe works as it should and, according to the member I just bought it from, was only used lightly twice. I received it Saturday and haven't even used it. It's just not my style; too...

I had a couple of hours to get out and do a quick dig. I went to a spot near where Dave and Todd had taken me over the summer. I got a flat button, ox knob and my first rosette. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the party hat that Dave's rosette had from the other day;).

Got out with Dave and Todd yesterday for an all-day dig. While I didn't find my elusive state copper, I still had a wonderful time. The weather cooperated and the settings were beautiful; I felt like I was taken back in time to a much simpler place. Thanks, guys for another unforgettable hunt.

Hello all, Just stumbled onto this forum while searching for a certain coil. Been digging for awhile, 12 years or so since I got my first real machine, a DiPro. It's been 35 years, though, since I built one with my father, one of those Heathkits. Didn't find much with it, of course, but the...
