Hello folks
My 4th trip out with the SE and I'm starting to see that I should have had one of these machines a long time ago...Now I know why someone in the UK that I know has found 4 bronze age axes. Man does this machine punch down into the ground on copper/bronze! I am hunting with the screen pretty wide open...almost all metal. I am looking for the old stuff out here in the USA (though I'll take any sort of sillllvar
) and as I said before it's farm/forest/cellar holes are where I love to hunt. So myself and my mate went off into the woods to look at two separate cellar hole sites. The 1700's buckle came from the first hole, a massive cellar hole with a huge barn. The site was occupied until recent times until it burnt down...so it was a trashy place and FULL of iron. He managed a nice looking "fattie" injun head and I pulled out the buckle. It was crazy because there were Iron signals all around the buckle but amongst those sounds there was that high pitched tone like a large bit of copper makes...so I dug and there she was yeah baby!! What's neat is that it has the makers initials pressed into the buckle..cool.
We went to explore another hole after lunch. I think it had been well cleaned by another of our brethren...not many targets left. Either that of the people who lived there had not too much to lose. I did mange the wee buckle with the bird on...kinda nice. You don't find those sort of buckles over in the UK...guess they are unique to the states? What period are they from guys?
Thanks for looking
