  1. 🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Old metal piece found in woods

    Found this metal piece out in the woods close to the edge of a field. Made of metal with “1820 Greenville O” on it. We live in Greenville, Ohio. Wish I snapped additional pictures of it, but this is all I have. Maybe a piece of old farm equipment? Or possibly some sort of mill piece?
  2. I've been digging up a large platform scale.. piece by piece

    This isn't silver or gold but it's certainly been entertaining to unearth. A couple weeks ago my hunting buddy found the large piece and I thought that was pretty cool but I returned this morning and found 4 more pieces which include 3 weights and the weight hanger. I hit the '100' weight with a...

  9. Found a big colonial flat button on the third day with my new detector!

    On my third day with the new Teknetics T2 SE I got a consistent signal at 8". I finally got the object out of the hole at a honest 8'', On the ground I saw what I thought is a coin. When I picked it up I saw a shank and knew I had my first button. When I got home I did research and discovered it...

  11. Where did Indians bury their dead in the hills of Appalachia?

    I have no intention of digging in or around a Native American burial ground but I would like to find one or at least see one locally. I live in the eastern part of ky and I'm an avid outdoorsman but I've still never seen an indian burial site out in the woods. I've heard stories from locals...
