My Kentucky Finds of 2009
Hello Everyone,
2009 was very interesting Year for me and had it's moments in my Personal life, where I just wondered what is going to happen next. One thing I know I can count on is a Beautiful State that I Live in and it's History around me . I always close at the end of a Year knowing the Best find made was the Opportunity of Learning more of Our History with Research and the use of a Metal Detector.
I did Metal detect a variety of sites ranging from Early 1800's homesites, Civil war, some Indian artifacts, late 1800's sites and on into the early 1900's.
It was alot of fun and even got to make some new freinds and share a few hunts with some Great guys from here on Tnet.
I hope 2010 brings Everyone a Safe and Great Year.
Nova Treasure

This is why I enjoy this hobby so much, the History. It gives a person alot of insight on how these early settlers lived and the tools they used. Compare this to today's times, totally amazing. Thanks for posting Nova T and saving the history very nice.

Thanks BB, That Capped was a Shocker, coming out of my own front yard after several yrs of pounding was a blessing.
yes,The Riflemans buckle, even though just a part of one is Something that is a pretty rare find and is also one of my favorite finds of all time, Hopefully I will get lucky and find the rest of it.
