A few close-ups of my finds over the last few months

[Bill D. (VA)]

Earlier I posted some pics of all the stuff in boxes, but that just highlighted the quantity and not necessarily the quality so I thought I'd show a little more detail now. I'm totally stoked about how the year went not just with colonial silver (24 coins), but with buckles, buttons, all the pit dig finds, and even some of the iron artifacts. I'm having a major problem keeping all the stuff straight while I pull things from different boxes for group shots, but guess that's a nice problem to have. Anyway, I won't ramble on here, but will just leave you with the pics to browse through. Don't forget to click on the thumbnails to get a more zoomed in view. I'm sure some of you have seen a lot of this before (since I posted 80+ starting threads since last fall), but this is a good recap of my season. Now it's time to take a break to write some articles, jump back into some research, and maybe do a little beach hunting. And of course, make up for lost time with my detecting widow who has been a real trooper letting me hunt 'till I dropped this year. HH ..... Bill

Stunning Bill, you are really doing some fantastic work there. Are you still able to hit the fields or have the ticks and snakes drove you off of them yet?

Bill, that's an incredible selection of finds. All that old silver is fantastic. I'm going out tomorrow morning, so thanks for all the visual motivation. Should I set my alarm for 4:00 a.m. or 5:00 a.m.?

Very nice! Those groups of finds are amazing to look at.

Amazing array of some lovely finds!

Incredible. I am amazed at how many cut silvers you find. I have found a fair share of colonial silvers, but only 1 cut one. I am thoroughly impressed!

I may have all the cut pieces, but you found the big prize with that gorgeous Mass silver coin. Talk about being jealous ......

That is absolutely stunning Bill. Nice job!

Thanks Dave. The fields are all planted now and are off limits so I'm done until the fall except for a little beach hunting. And yes, the snakes and ticks are out in abundance. Good luck to you up in the north country.
