In 2013 most of my hunts were with Todd (Thiltzy).He himself has become quite a force to reckon with as a colonial cellar hole hunter.We both made quite a few amazing historical finds.The ones that stand out the most is digging 10 George Washington Inaugural buttons between the 2 of us this year.He dug 4 & I dug 6.
We had a few group hunts with Dan(Del) George (coinnut)Dale (Elad) Jesse (sniffy)
Scott(Safari Scott) Frank(fast frank)John(Blaze) Roger( Rebel) Ray(Kray) & Gary(foundation hunter) but for the most part Todd & myself paired up for the majority of the year.
Didn't do quite as well as the 2 previous years in the large copper dept but 57 1/4 totally satisfied me.
Other than the 6 GW's some nice relics surfaced.one of my faves was the baby pre civil war US oval belt plate,a early 1 piece militia button,CW buttons and a couple nice colonial shoe buckles.one of my fave coin finds was a beautiful uncut 1721 two reale pistareen,I dug my 2nd ever seated half dollar.
Along with the finds,I won a minelab x-terra 305 in a contest on facebook.i am in 2 calenders for 2014 Detect America & the White's calender.I will also be in Western & Eastern Treasure Magazines best finds of 2013 issue due out in March for the 5 GW button day.I also have a 2-3 foot tall trophy coming from Josh Silva's CS Sentinel Forum for find of the year.Totally flattered to receive all of the above!
Was a unforgettable year gettin stung up by white faced hornets
,seeing Todd the following week getting chased
& stung by yellow jackets,encountering a bear in the trail.hundreds of mosquito bites,pulling ticks off us,hiking up mountains and losing a ton of sweat during 100 degree temps,Freezing our butts off in close to zero degrees during the winter.crazy thing is..we'll do it all over again in 2014!
I hope you all have a a safe new year!
