Dream Day .. Confederate Lined "I", 3 coppers, etc..

If you saw the post and videos by Sentinel the other day, then you know where I was hunting today He ventured out to the DIV hunt so I was flying solo today... The finds from this property are hit and miss as far as condition goes... unfortunately I made some very nice recoveries that seemed to all have plow encounters I'm still thrilled to have them Spent a total of 7 hours in the field today HH Jeff

Re: Dream Day .. Confederate Lined "I", 3 coppers, etc..

Excellent! Is that your first Confederate button?

Thanks man, that's actually my 3rd (got a VA button and Script I last fall)

Wasn't that VA post war?

All these posts are building up the hunger in me and I'm about to release the detecting animal.

The VA from last month was for a buddy that doesn't post.. Mine was last fall Canfield Bros backmark

I bet you did better than most of the people at the DIV.

I think you're probably right

That's a good little collection you got going with lots of time to add to it!

Told you there'd be a lot of ground to make up Mite be time to put me back in my cage

I got your call today, but was out hunting. Some of the most Exhausting hunting of my life...but found the spot right before dark. (Started hunting at 11am)

Good Lord! Remind me never to do that again...until the next hunt.


Those are some Top Notch finds. ANY Confed. button is a real thrill. And quite a haul on coppers too!

You da man, Jeff! You da man! I am glad you are back on the Colonial train again. I remember you were in a drought a few weeks ago!

You did very good flying solo. Hope you are able to find some more there.

Thanks VPR

Kyle, I was in a mad drought for 2 months really... a few buttons and bullets here and there but not one old coin seems like the tide turned a little... detecting is all about streaks

No worries Buckleboy, I figured you were out in the field when I called... I'm heading out there today so hopefully I can get into another little hotspot... no wait, the whole field is a hotspot

Thanks CCZ , I like flying solo out there but think its much better to share the experience with good people who don't get pissed when you find something nice... I've had that happen a few times and it leaves a sour taste in your mouth.. Good luck this weekend Zeus

No, it's actually about sites! Sites make streaks!
