    Saving History New England.....Episode 1 w. F75 & T2

    I think I have finally edited this episode down enough to show....8) This is a heavily cut down, low quaility version of one of my episodes from my detecting DVD to give people a sneak peek at what I have been up to. Also what a real, remote colonial New England cellar hole looks like...."The...

    Silver coin hiding in the iron:detecting:

    The ground here is now diggable, and last weekend I had a free afternoon & joined a friend at the early "pounded" park that I dug that Victorian gold ring & a couple V-nickles last time. Most of the silver is long gone at this "hunted out" park. But, last time before leaving I found an area...

    Nickels airtest excellent on F75....

    I was running some airtests for someone today who was interested in the F75 and saw something pretty interesting coin-wise I never noted before. He asked for the inches for coins...specifically a quarter and a nickel. Now I'm not sure if this is something F75 fans were already aware of because...

    JE......gettin the nickels & GOLD:detecting:

    Sorry I have not been posting much (working nights & a baby makes for a very different lifestyle) :) But, on a positive it's allowing me to do more school treasure presentations during the day. Well, I was able to get out to a "pounded" out park last week with the F75. The parks been hammered...

    Daddy Daycare....still getting out with the F75:twodetecting:

    Just takes a little bit more creativity is all with a new baby......... :blush: Emma is now 2 1/2 months, and a pretty good hunting partner as she likes bouncing around in this front harness. Kinda tricky trying to dig though ;) We got an 1864 "fat" Indian head the other day with the F75...

    I put the F75 down for a few min...... Thanks to Bill Henderson & his son's for inviting me to share in one of their spots..........a river that they have been pulling old bottles & other relics out of. I'm going to do a W&E Treasures article & we have also filmed twice for my version of a...

    New small F75 coil in the field........

    I took a couple of youngsters interested in detecting out to a trashy spot where a barn was....... The small coil did great there & like I said, it's not so small that you can't cover some ground as well........(a great coil to teach kids the hobby too as they could more easily pinpoint by...

    Finally got back out!:detecting:

    A new baby really keeps your hands full, but I was able to sneak out Sat. morning to test out a new prototype. I wanted to try a place near home that I knew well, so I choose one of my best local cellar holes. I found this myself taking a different route back to my car on a hike. This picture...

    NEWS: Dug copper coin @ auction for $16,500.00....

    @ Stacks and still climbing:shocked:....Not even that "pretty" looking, but you never know...I probably would have figured it was some kinda crap token or foreign copper or something :) oops! Instead, this is considered the 1st copper minted in the US....a 1658-59 Maryland/Lord Baltimore...

    Scouting for new sites......

    I did another presentation at a summer school program yesterday. I took a few photo's but afterwards the teacher said that some of the parents didn't want pictures of their kids online, so I will respect those wishes...... While in this area of the state, I had remembered a lead I had received a...

    Kids find first Silver w. F75.....

    At my last school presentation, a young boy tugged at my arm & asked if I would like to metal detect his yard. Now this happens at every talk I give, but with some adult groups it's led to some sweet permissions. So, I calmly asked if he lived in an old house? The boy said, "REAL old, like...

    YES!! F-75 finds a big one! :buds::super:

    This coin has been a goal of mine since I started detecting in New England with my grandfather in the late 70's... This is THE coin to find in this area... It took a long while....Finally, I dug a readable Massachusetts hammered Silver "tree coin"! This is a rare 1662 Oak Tree Twopence. (either...

    F75.....HOTT on buttons:hot:

    I was able to bag this very cool Revolutionary French 64th regiment coat button this weekend with the F75..... I'm in the process of moving, & my Troiani button book is packed away, but I'm guessing this is part of "Rochembeau's March" which passed through this area in 1780..... This is "as...

    Great F75 tip on hunting sites twice

    I don't like running my disc over 15/16 as to risk losing gold or a valuable Colonial/pewter/military button.... But, I really like this great tip from First Texas' own Mike Scott that I decided to reproduce it here (without his permission:lmfao: ) Seems like a great way to cover all your bases...

    F75 tackles "Shoe Buckle Inn"....

    Those who get Western & Eastern treasures magazine may remember a story about a large colonial cellar hole site in NH. I nicknamed the shoe buckle Inn due to both our feelings that it was a tavern, & that it produced so many different Colonial shoe buckles which I love to find. WEll I had never...
