I went to the 1700s fort that if you work hard enough through all that iron and brick and white shells you may just find something. I got a war nickel, A liberty dime, a concave 4 hole button that was 9” deep and green as hell, so I’m not sure how old it is, oh and a round ball and flat button. image-2019-12-24-03:11:08-406.webpI was happy to be back outside and digging all by myself doing a Red Bull speed ball. Good to be back fellas.

I don’t know how to find somebody I’m I’m on Tapatalk on my iPhone. What’s the name of the machine is he in the minelab group? What’s the name of the new detector?
 
Some really nice finds- Congrats!
 
Cool finds! That object next to the round ball is an old jack. Hard to tell how old. The game is 2000 years old.

You know Smallfoot you made me just realize that I’ve only found two jacks in the four years I’ve been hunting and until about three months ago I was hunting at least four times a week. Adjustments.webp
 
Congrats on the finds, Truth. Sorry to hear about your rough patch. This is a great therapeutic hobby though. I will keep you in my prayers.

Probably most people don't pick them up because of the signal and I think they degrade pretty easy. I've never got one and I dig lots of junk. Your post made me think back and can't remember ever finding one..Welcome back, it's good respite.

You know?

I been feeling better for the last 3-4 days Psychically , & a bit better mentally , I hope it lasts . God Willing but I got to do my part.

What I really wanted to say was I got out yesterday from 3.30 til Dark ( 6 pm ish ) I got a old looking Roofing Hatchet with the Tomahawk look . I never dug one like that before. Then I got a good signal , I was 98% sure it was lead , it was just under a 3 inch root in hard-packed brown clay all in all about 7 inches down . I eventually dug it out with my fingers (as I hate Digger Dings ) turned out that it looks to be a dropped short Enfield type with some bottom (old) damage ( guess it could have been fired but the nose was perfect with '0' signs of rifling .

Man I don't think I have been that excited over a Bullet since the first one I dug .

So for me just getting out of the house was nice & the relics were icing on the cake.

We will make it through this 'TRIAL' along with thousands of unknown others who are suffering in silence .
Hang in there Buddy.
Davey
