It must and shall be preserved

[Diggin' B]

Today, I was invited by my cousin to check out a farm field that has a gravel pit in the middle of it. He goes to the gravel pits and farm fields to hunt arrowheads and such. Well, this particular site he found had traces of red brick in the plowed field. He figured it was most likely a business or homestead location at some point in history as it sits near a railroad track and a river. He has had a lot of luck in this area finding fossils, arrowheads, and Indian artifacts. One year, he even found a baby mammoth tooth there and eventually he donated it to a local college. He doesn't metal detector but knows I do so he called me. Here are today's best finds. 1878 large cent, 1865 and 1860 Indian heads, and a civil war token Army and Navy. -The federal union It must and shall be preserved- on the back. I also found a large axe head, toe tap, and about 7 various size flat buttons all with the shank attached.

I might have converted him into metal detecting now. Good side...yes he loves me. I gave him all of my Army uniforms and gear when I got out. Happy outdoorsman he is!

I've had good luck at lost farm steads in the past.... But Not Your Luck.... What a great hunt.... Can I ask what detector you used ??? were your targets really deep??? I sound like rotten lil kid... "hey mister, hey mister." South Jersey is so full of aluminum and rusty nails... I'm really glad when some one has a good day is all.

I think that large cent is a bit older then 1878

It doesn't matter you bang it, I haven't did anything this month but find club tokens for the club I'm in, they have got my attention off wild finds, but I'm in the lead for 400 dollars in silver at the end of the year

Well, the plug was about 8 inches. I told my cousin it sounds like a coin and looked down and it was laying on top of the plug. The rest of my sentence was...like this one
