I think I've had about enough of face book. I really don't care for the format. A few years ago the detecting world just kind of migrated over to FB. It had a couple of advantages like ease of posting in general as well as pictures with ease and videos But I am going to try to focus on regular...

I was informed this week that my Gold Posey ring find from last September in Colchester has been declared Treasure Trove and I won't be getting it back. Two museums are going to bid on it. The land owner gets half the money and I get the other half. Damn it. I wanted to give that ring to my...

I had an excellent hunt in Colchester this past September and scored my first gold coin 1672 Charles 1/2 guinea and a Gold and enamel posey ring from about 1650. the inscription reads " I am But a Token" and it's a corker of a ring. I did well with other "normal" finds as well but these were the...

I hit this coin two weeks ago at my GW/USA site right on the lip of the cellar hole. It's the third 94 that I have But it's in far better shape than the others. Get out there.

Here’s something to do. Let’s see one from everyone. 2021 can’t be as bad?

Got out on an invite over the weekend to a spot where my host had found over 12 coppers in two days hunting. I mucked around with some trash and buttons but didn’t score until the end of the day with a super deep iffy signal that I went after because of the site I was on. At over 12” with the...

Got out for a group hunt today with some you will know. We all did well with coppers all around well almost. Lots of fun and laughs. My day was some buttons a couple spoons?? 😂 and a nice shape KGII 173? Get out there.

Three of us got back to the same cellar as Gary and I were at last weekend. We did well again and all had some nice finds. My favorites for the day were a set and a half of colonial cuff links a KGII and a lot of colonial buttons. Gary did well with another GW and we brought another friend Eric...

Got out with a couple friends today to multiple sites that all gave a little. I hunted the Deus and the Equinox just because. No other reason. Tons of buttons, shoe buckle frag, sleigh bell, Smoothie KGII, suspender parts and a gold ring that I think is 1700s early 1800s from the font and high...

I always figure that I will hit at least one Reale each year. Last year I didn’t get it done until December. It was a close call. This year I’m way ahead of schedule with this 1 Reale. It’s the nicest shape Reale I’ve ever been lucky enough to fine. Very pleased to have it. Get out there.

I got out to a field today that I've been detecting for a week. We call it the button field for good reason as we always dig lots of buttons there. Today was no exception as I dug about 6 buttons and a LC while there for two hours. One button today was special Dan says 1820 or earlier. I like it...

I'm Published it's official. Back in 2008 I found a steamship company button at a cellar hole dig. I was contacted by a family member from the company and they provided proof of who they were so I donated my button for them to have. Now it's in a nice book that just came out about steamships...

I went to a new permission tonight at a 1950s house but research told me there was a house there in the 1800s. I dug this Malitia Plate 1818-30 at more than a foot down. Why why why did someone cut the shield out ?? Anyway I'm very happy to have it. Im told that the cut out the shield "thing"...

I got back from a group hunt yesterday and nobody was home sooooo exit stage right!! I went and hunted a close by cellar hole. And this was the only keeper. The bugs drove me out. Awful

On thursday I got out to a fresh cut hay field and was hunting with my CTX and hit a target I've wanted for a long time but realistically never thought I would get. I hit a Native American Kettle Point. I hit it at about 8-10" and it was a very tough target to hear and dig. If I hadn't been on a...

I got out to a hay field this weekend to do a little testing with a new coil and what a surprise I got. The field is level and has a stream for one boarder and is what I would call a natural camp site. I was marking targets with flags and then testing the new XP Deus Elliptical against my...

Hi Guys Got out for a while this afternoon to a nice cut alfalfa field and it was hopping. 4 coppers, one is a CT one is a smooth KG and one was hammered out and turned into a whiser. The last one is a coin I've only found twice before. It's the second one down you coin guys will know just from...
