Colonial hunt with Del

[coinnut]

Wanted to go up to a site that has given up 3 coppers before, but other than that, targets were sparse. Today we found some holes near there and targets again were sparse lol So we headed back to the 3 copper hole. It was a long day and we worked hard for our targets. Sometimes the light rain is enough to make you detecting less than stellar :yes: But it cleared up and so did our falsing machines :ticked: Finally managed 2 coppers. One is an 1739 George II, the other is toast (a George II also) Some odds and ends and a beautiful iron backed Eagle cuff button and a odd looking bullet. My second hunt of the day didn't produce much of anything good.

Wow! That is a sweet old copper. The on-and-off rain today was a pain, but that's a great detecting day any way you look at it. thumbsup01

Ohhh ok so you two did go out. Glad ya found some decent finds. Friday del an I went out and I struck out. Have to find a good program for my 5.3 coil (whites XLT). The 9.5 coil is hard for me because ,well you know. Got a slingy thing I made but it was alot of up an down detecting. Better luck maybe this week (Sat. or Sun.). I had a hard enough time getting into del's jeep. Thought I was gonna have to get a ladder. The lift is higher than b4 :embarrassed: should seen me getting in. It sucks being 5' 6 . lol lol lol

George the Colonial Man,

It is always nice to see the Connecticut hunters getting the Colonial goodies. :drool: You guys could quit your day jobs and make this a fun job. rofl Keep hunting those cellar holes with fervor. I feel a GW button is going to sneak under your coil this year. You guys dig too many Colonial artifacts for one of those bad baby's not to get dug.
