    5 Indian Spill !

    Took a little road trip to go visit my grandpa, and of course do some hunting. Gramps house was built in the 1890's, I've searched his yard dozens of times and dont know how I missed this 5 indian head spill. It had a nail on top of them so maybe it threw me off, who knows. Dates are 1879, 1889...

    I was out hunting today and found a really nice silver plated religious medal with Mary on one side and Jesus on the other.

    Hey Moderators...Have a ? about ads

    I don't know if this has ever been brought up before, but what do you guys think about separate categories for items for sale and wanted. Seems to me that the wanted threads kinda over take the for sale sometimes. Thanks for your input.

    2 months in the frozen tundra, 2 to go!

    The last time mother nature let me swing the coil was Nov 30th. Typically we cant stick a knife in the ground till the first part of April, so we are half way there! Been doing some winter research and have a couple of good leads. Cant wait for spring, I'm ready to put the coil to the soil

    40% JFK and a chauffeur badge

    Hunted a tiny yard from the 1880's. Totally loaded with nails and iron so all I could scratch up was some clad. Moved out to the boulevard and found this 68D JFK and a 1926 chauffeur badge. I thought it was kinda cool finding it close to the 50th anniversary of the assignation. My 2nd big silver...

    I was out hunting the other day when my Koss headphones started acting up. I wiggled the connector end and got some static but couldn't make them work.
