    Civil War finds and another question...

    Do you think that chain might be off of a nipple protector or if not what would it be to? I'm not necessarily expecting it to be a CW item because this place is a house site as well as a camp. Also, how about the huge finial, flag pole? Thanks, Neal

    I enjoy finding even just a few Civil War relics...

    Being a longtime hunter from Northern Indiana now replanted back in KY it's fun as heck for me to find even just a few Civil War items to dig. Got me a 69 Minnie, 36 Colt, General Service Eagle Coat button, chain that may or may not be off a nipple protector and a huge finial that may or may not...

    Pulled the trigger and ordered a Deus...

    should be here in a couple of days. Can't wait to try it on some hammered to DEATH sites, I mean NO nonferrous targets left to hear whatsoever with Explorer OR G2 with different coils and settings. It's all gone. Zero, zilch, nada, nothing, not a sliver of a piece of foil left that these...

    A flat button kind of a day...

    Got over quite a few plain flat buttons yesterday. Went to 2 different farms and one of the sites was actually a pioneer station near here. It is very unfortunate that they don't ever plow these fields because you know there is good stuff down there where a deep plowing would bring it up. I...

    Today's finds from the middle of the farm...

    Got over the sister to the KY button I dug a couple weeks ago. Same back mark, falling apart just like the other one. LOL. Also a Cavalry Eagle and a General Service Eagle maybe post Civil War by a few years, not sure. Then the sportsman's button with a dog's face on it, an 1888 Indian, some...

    Yesterday's digs from the back side of the farm...

    It's a mile walk to this house site so I spent a good bit of time there when I got there. It's my second time to hit it and I did better this time. 1893-O Barber Quarter, 1924 penny, brass wedding band, sterling piece that is very thin and flimsy , buckles, huge flat button with a hole and a...

    Report on the new coil performance today...

    Took the Detech 5" coil to a hammered house site today and got 40 or 50 hits that weren't there last time!, lol. It really gets between the iron well! Can't wait to try it at my button patches.

    Got a new coil, well a new to me coil...

    It's a Detech 5" coil. It measures exactly 5" in diameter. Last night I air tested it and that little sucker was picking up an indian cent at 8" (7" was a solid, hard hit). Then I tested my size 11 gold wedding band and it hit hard at 8" and iffy above 9"! I was surprised the little coil would...

    Yesterday's farm field finds...

    These were at the old house site where I dug the Confederate Staff Eagle last week. Sadly that KY button in the picture is dated a few years after the war. That is an intact rifle tampion with a little cork left on it (keeps the rain out of the barrel). I don't know what the twisted piece is...

    2014 silver and gold...

    One 10k gold ring is all the gold I found in 2014 but it's a nice looking one and it fits me and I wear it 24/7. I dug 54 silver coins including a couple of seateds, a worn/holed half reale and a 1923 silver dollar(my first ever). It was a good year for me. I also was able to add to the Civl War...
