Something else....on "hunted out"?
I ask meself....How long have detectors been around? And then....how long have people been losing things? Hunted out!? Hah!

Drive by a public green anything-the detecting world has been doing the same for 50 yrs.
Frost pushes finds around here, until the machine doesn't beep-there's keepers left to be found.
My only gold coin (From the UK 50BC Celtic Full Stater ) came from a spot that I and many others had hit.
Just on that day alone I had dug probably a dozen targets in a 20' x 20' area, and where I dug the gold I had dug 6 targets in a 3'x5' area.
Dig get up, start swinging, miss a 1" spot-there you go a left piece to be found later.

Bart,

Looks like you hit the jackpot on that coin ,with the provenance, even in beat up condition you should be able to get a 1/3 of that price!

[Blak bart]

I'm outta here....got to go back right now...I cant contain myself.

 

[bill from lachine]

Bart,

Where's our buddy Tom the restorer when you need him. He'd have the best method for cleaning up that staining without degrading the condition.

We have a couple of Japanese eggplant we have to use up. We'll probably give this recipe a try.

Well......speaking of treasure. Here's something I find rather apropos:
