    Think I found more Silver...

    This is one tiny piece. I have to say that the Tejon running in true all metal really kicks a$$ on a site like this.

    Another killer Colonial trade silver from Ohio! What a trade site! I would hunt that site until the ground is totally silent.

    Re: Think I found more Silver...

    Thanks Kirk. I have been using my 12x10 coil on the site. Now, I'm using the stock coil which is giving me the smaller stuff and it lets me get down into the grass more. Now that I know where the concentration of stuff is I will thoroughly grid the area. This is a rare site for me and is what I have been wanting to find since I got into metal detecting nearly three years ago. I spent all last summer on a nearby hill looking for a site like this. I knew there had to one around given the history of the area. The actual concentration of finds is no bigger than 40 feet in diameter. This is in a field that has many, many acres of ground. Kind of a needle in a haystack. I feel blessed to have actually found a producing trade site. Persistence pays off.

    This site is proof that being patient will bring rewards. You should take a picture of the totals from this site. I would love to see that history in one picture.

    Yeah, I'm going to be getting a display case of some sort soon. Hopefully I can get a few more finds to put in it then get some pictures. Glad you like my stuff.
