KKC (KirkKyleChris) got out today to another new site. It didn't produce enough for us today in order to hunt it again in the future. I dug a Classic Head large cent, another ornate 1700s shoe buckle frame piece, an 1863 Indian, an 1864 Indian, and other homesite relics. The Classic Head is 100% confirmed, but the picture of the obverse just doesn't show its detail for you all to see. Oh well, it counts and I can add another copper to my 2009 season total. I believe this is my fifth Classic Head largie for the year.

Kyle,
You sound bummed out by that hunt. :dontknow: You need to hunt with me a day to see how bad the finds can be. ;D
If I had those relics from one hunt, I'd be right back over there again. As we all know, there could still be a banner find there just waiting there for you. :thumbsup:
Congrats on the copper, but I like it ALL.

I remember 3 of us us being out 10 hours one time, driving all over the place, trying many fields, and at the end of the day had 10 modern pennies. On days like that you just think back to some of the great days and know they will happen again. I almost always go out with a plan in mind, sometimes it works, or times I have to listen to Kirk. :D

You better get used to it. You will be listening to KKC for years to come. Sit back and enjoy the misery, Pretty Boy Dan! :laughing7:

10 hours and no finds? That is why you don't see me swinging my detector on that Peter Island. :laughing7:

Prepare to be shut up tomorrow. :laughing7: Watch for our posts! That 1794 and the rest of your goodies is going down and we will take the 2-1 lead. :thumbsup:

Dug Dude,

I was kind of bummed out that the site didn't produce any Colonials or at least a few more large cents. I love large cents like you wouldn't believe, but, after I found the 1700s shoe buckle on top of the ground, I was pretty excited about what could be there. It then spit out four Indian Heads and only one large copper. You should of heard my yelp when I picked up the shoe buckle. :laughing9: The potential was there, but it left us hanging out to dry at the end of the day. :'(

IP, I know how you feel. It has happened way too many times than I can count. You and IH are posting something killer tomorrow night. I see another beautifully-gilted Rev War button for you. :headbang:

I have a new area in mind, not one we haven't been to, just haven't been there lately. There's not much research behind it but we'd rather take our chances and not have to travel over an hour each way. Losing 4 hours of digging daylight doesn't help, but to kill over two hours on the highway you don't really even feel like you had a real hunt. That being said, I will prepare some tonight and I do have one very good looking set of fields in mind. So you should see a post!

Right now it's 1-1, that 1794 has to hold up to take Victory #2. I'd say it has a good chance, but you never know!

Good thing it's not just me against you. :laughing9:

It might work out that way, but remember my best find of the year didn't make it, and it was a hell of a lot better than the 1794! Lucky for you I won't be doing that again... just have to try and equal it!

The chic has to be on the Iron Bros side!

Yeah I've been that dirty before. ;D

I think she's a secret weapon to keep the other team distracted. It's working too. ;D
