First off let me say hello to all the fellow , TH'ers out there, My Name is Kevin
I have read the stories posted on here on and off for last few years. and I really enjoy reading about all the nice finds. I was introduced to Metal detecting around the age of 15 by my step father he had bought me a Garrette freedom ace, It wasn't long before I could tell you what I had before I dug the coin, it really amazed my friends. I have found numerous silver and clad over the years one of my best finds was a bane't knife that had a leather strap handle made with brass and pewter on the end of the handle , it was dated back to around the civil war. me being 15 or so at the time sold the thing and probaly for a lot less then what it was worth.
Anyway I use to metal detect alot as a teen then never really had the time later on, not sure what even happened to my freedom ace, man I loved that thing. Anyway I am posting because my wife's grandmother had past away. and my wife was left her estate, My wife is not looking forward to it at all, her grandmother was a pack rat so not sure what we will find but will keep everyone posted if anything interesting comes up. I do know that she had a decent coin collection , because some years back she was spending them for money not knowing that they were worth much more than face value.
