Thanks 63bkpkr. I've been swinging my MXT not far from Fort Early in Lynchburg. So far I've found some cool relics from the civil war with my best find being a confederate Georgia state coat button. I've also managed to dig up some nice silver coins. I'm hoping to get permission to hunt more lawns in the same neighborhood. I also have a buddy that says he will take me out to his families property in Bedford county. He has done alot of research on the history of the property. It turns out in the 1800s there was a hotel on the property along with three home sites. I will be a digging fool!!!
