Detector(s) used
Fisher F70
Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
Got up early and took my son detecting to I site I've hit a dozen times. Last two times didn't get anything but was going to try to find trash pit. We walked about a mile in the woods and was just about there and I was hunting the side of the hill beside the original road hoping they threw their trash towards the river. When I got a solid hit. Dug down about 6 inch and got a copper. I filled the hole and then decided to recheck it and got a broken up signal so just started digging deep when my son said what's that. I look over in the pile and see like 10 gren disk scattered in the pile. Think I went in shock then lol. My son reched in the hole and dug out another. I picked up one and could tell it was a kg11 then a kg 111 after that I just bagged them up then swung the coil again and got two more we missed. 16 total 1700s coins. And one flat button about a foot away. I'd say my coolest find yet. Never thought I'd find a cache but seeing post on here new it was possible. Starting to just clean them with a brush and know I got two Connecticuts and a 76 irish and a kg11 and a couple kg111. Have 4 I can't tell yet. What a morning still can't believe it.

Congrats man!!!
I haven't been out much for awhile, other things have been happening, but that's just a great find, especially with your son with you. That's just a dream find, come true.
Neat enough to find a spill, but a colonial spill - WOW!
Great to see, keep up the Father/ Son hunts, that's better than gold.
btw- still haven't found any spanish silver around here, you've done great. Too late for my Banner vote, but def. well deserved. HH!
 

Many congratulations! Sweet find.

All the best,

Lanny
 

Good Day ! Ouch , that poor settler took a hit in his pocket change ....
 

Amazing!! It’s one of those moments when you hear the angels sing!!! One of the best things is the picture of your son with that cheek to cheek smile!! I took my great grandson on Thanksgiving, he’s 4, and I threw a few coins for him to find and he loved it. This was our hobby gets past on to the next generation. All the best to you and your family!!
