NEW CT

hello Chuck welcome to the American Detectorist forum. great area of Connecticut your in , i'm a bit north of you (Enfield) and i'm into the history as well. glad you joined us here .

Welcome from western MA. Glad you found us. How long have you and your wife been detecting? Feel free to post up some past finds.
 
Not much experience. We bought the DFX in '03. Used it off and on. Most finds on our property. It used to be a farm so a lot of buried barbed wire. LOL

Wife has found a couple of nice rings in parks.

I am retired and wife is retiring this summer. We consider ourselves rank noobies. Always open to advice. Looking for experienced buddies in our area.

We are diehard Gettysburg and Antietam history buffs. I actually was allowed to accompany a MDer on private property in middle of the Antietam Battleground in '03. Wasnt allowed to do anything but watch however.

Our main interest is relics and hopefully coins.
 
Chuck the DFX is a very good relic finding machine and you keep detecting old fields and parks and your shure to find some old relics from one of the major wars. Connecticut supplied huge numbers of soldiers and resources in the Revolutionary ,War of 1812 and the Civil War and many of my military relics ( buttons , badges and plates) were lost from the veterans returing home. i'm sure you and your wife will find your share history burried beneath our feet.

Another welcome from Western MA!! I too am a huge civil war buff, and cut my teeth civil war relic hunting in TN for years before moving to the NE.
 
I have definitely heard of Monmouth, IL, but I'm not sure if I've ever been there. I'm originally from a small town in southern Illinois called Flora so that's my old stomping grounds and the area I'm most familiar with.
 
Welcome to the club from Kentucky! |:cheering: Looking forward to seeing some finds and hearing some stories from you and your wife :)
 
Welcome from Mississippi. Welcome to the forum. Will be looking forward to you finds and post.
 
Thanks for all the welcomes. Wife and I are biting at the bit to get out there. Been real cold this past week. Weather predicters saying next wed will be 50. Hoping they are correct.
 
Welcome to American Detectorist Chuck. A big thank you for joining us here. :clapping:

You are in one heck of some historically rich ground. :daydream: Looking forward to your posts. :->
 
Welcome aboard from south Mississippi. I would think that CW relic hunting in CT would be a bit tough. :waving:
