Today's Outlaw finds.:detecting:

[B.RATNY]

Me and a friend hunted an old site we've hunted in the past. It's an old lakeside kids camp from the 30's or 40's but there is also an old colonial home site on the property, so it makes for a large variety of finds. We have dug colonial coins that date back into the 1700's plus buckles, buttons and other interesting odds and ends. We also find more modern coins Mercs wheaties and Barbers. The Outlaw did great there today, no old colonial coins but I was able to find a few nice button's. Also scored a bunch of wheat pennies, a few Mercury dimes and a foreign coin of some sort. I'm very happy to have pulled a few buttons from the older area because we have hit that very hard in the past. The Outlaw is very good in the iron, very little falsing and I was getting good depth with the 5.75" coil. Most of my finds were in the 4"-6" range with great signals.

well done!

The foreign coin is from Austria, I believe.

Very nice Mercs, there's gotta be some more oldies there.......

Is the foreign coin silver ? Looks like aluminum or german silver. It seems that you have some very good places to hunt, the Outlaw is in it's true element at colonial cellars holes. I just wish my cellar holes were that old. I have a forum buddy from upstate NY who shall remain anonymous.... I have tried to talk him into hunting those kind of places, he just won't listen to me Living in Kansas, the history in some places around KC goes back to pre civil war times but here where I live it is Indian Wars period.

Congrats !

Hi Hombre. Yes I'm sure there's still some colonial coins there. We've already found quite a few, my hunting buddy is up to 3 Connecticut coppers a few large cents and a couple King George coppers. I have a couple King George coppers a liberty cap half cent and a 1798 large cent. I can't wait to get back. He found the site and got permission to hunt it towards the end of the season last year so we haven't even been able to get in the lake yet to do some water hunting, there's a very large swimming area with a couple rope swings I can just imagine the jewelry it must be holding. Time to dust off the dive gear.
