2001, still works great :thumbup:

If you click on the pictures they will jump out at you, well, all but one any way.

Here are some scans of my finds hanging out with Brandy in Old Massachusetts, thanks Brandy :clapping:, had a great time and can't wait to get back to old America :thumbup:,
As you know I did the dumb thing and adjusted my camera at Gettysburg in the rain and dark without wearing my glasses but I did manage a few pictures from my video cam plus the old scanner works just fine :thumbup:

Here's a old copper and old buttons from the 1700's and one from the 1800's!

Here's two large cents that I found, one is the oldest American coin I have ever found (1810) LC and the other LC is to eaten up to get a date off of.

Here's the back of the 1810 LC, when I got the Explorer over it I knew it was a Large Cent, deep and hit like a silver quarter but didn't sound like silver but a solid coin hit, not to bad for a American 200 year old coin and not being silver, I have found 5 Large Cents in my 8 years of detecting in four different States, New York, Michigan, Massachusetts and Alabama :poke:

I love the cannons, you just can't take a shot of a cannon, you have to get the whole picture of a cannon, how they line up to your left and right!

Would love to hear these great guns sound off, it had to be awesome in 1863 even tho the event for firing them wasn't, American against American :usaflag: ..... :csflag:

Thanks for looking folks, want to take a great trip, head to the North East, the New England States then head to Gettysburg to top it off :thumbup:
