Detecting field sites in January in Ohio how great is that? Today I bested my 1919 Wheat Penny from New Years Day. 20 feet into the field well short of the old home site I found a Monster Blade, although the base is snapped off it's almost 4 inches long! I also found a 184_? Large Cent, the quarter is just for size reference. The sweet blade on the left I found Dec. 28th same site. I also found a broken quartz arrowhead, my first quartz piece. I Finished the hunt with a broken clay pipe stem

Hey there he is!!!! Great stuff and awesome to see a post from you. Those are incredible native artifacts
 

AWESOME specimen! Congrats on a very nice recovery...ddf
 

Great finds! It's wonderful to hear of people detecting all over despite it being January.
 

Congrats on a couple of nice finds. Gonna be warm here in Illinois tomorrow. Supposed to be 54 degrees. Ground is thawing ( at least where I will be ) and its time to head back out. 2 weeks of cold temps and rain just froze everything up.
 

Great finds! I wouldn't call that a heartbreaker - I would love to find a blade like that!!! :icon_thumright:
 

You found some really cool stuff, congratulations! :occasion14:

The old copper recovery is always nice!
 

Metal, LOVE that blade! I've not found any nice ones but I keep my eyes peeled in the fields when detecting...congrats on a great find..ddf
 

I'm still here Abe. Been finding some goodies, just working 12 hr shifts 5-6 days a week doesn't leave me much time.
