Yo, oyster boys, what's up? ???

Well, The Three Datectateers got out today to my latest rasearch project. ;D After two failed attempts to locate the site earlier this year, the third time was the charm. ;D Colonial Silver Zeus secured permission for us to hunt this site, and Colonial KirkPA bought all three of us Chinese food for payment yesterday. ;D Thank you, bro! ;D

Simply stated, this is a 1787 site. ;D

Well, to make a long metal datecting story short, I got a nice Colonial button within the first 2 minutes of swinging like John Walter. :thumbsup: I later got the awesome buckle later on during the day. I ended with 4 buttons for the day.

Well, folks, I was sweeping along like John "Johnny" Walter, when I was startled with an "R" on "Quarter" reading on my White's XL Pro 6000; it turned out to be an 1838 largie. :headbang: I went in a straight line and got another "R" on "Quarter," which turned out to be another largie. :headbang: I went in a straight line and got another "R" on "Quarter," which turned out to be anther largie. :headbang: I went 6 inches to the right of the last largie, and got a "P" on "Penny" reading on my White's. It turned out to be a Liberty Cap largie. :wav: :smileinbox: :occasion14: It is identifiable in person.

Overall, the group excavated 6 large cents today, with 2 of them being Draped Busts and 1 a Liberty Cap. ;D

Keep the fever high! :thumbsup:

Kyle

Yo, Dan the Man, thanks for the reply, buddy. Yup, 4 coppers is the most I've found in one day. I am suuuper glad that the third time was the charm for this site. We are looking forward to going back next Sunday, my good buddy from SoCal!

Keep the fever high, my good friend!

Kyle,
Welcome back. You came back in style too. :wink: Congrats on not only some excellent finds, but not giving up and finally finding that spot you had researched. It paid off Buddy. :thumbsup:
What year is that IH?
Looking forward to your next hunt from that spot.
-Doug-

Thanks, Doug Dude, for the reply. We had two previous failed trips on locating the site prior to yesterday. It definitely wasn't an easy one to locate.

Oh, the Indian Heads are dated 1900 and 1906.

Take care, my good friend from NC!

Well Kyle it looks like another fantastic site my boy........Another Liberty Cap for you. You tied me . Of course my second was a half cent. I couldn't believe you kept yelling out Copper. Four times in 15 minutes. This site should have many more goodies to keep us coming back for a good chunk of the summer. With alot of it being grass it should be easier on us. Not that we are turning into sissies or anything. Well at least I'm not. LOL. Next week Kirk should pop them out also. It will give us something to look forward to all week.
Zoyncle Zeus

Yup, I have skipped right over the Draped Bust largies and got 2 Liberty Caps in 1 month. It just doesn't get any better than this.

Remember when you said, "Kyle, if you find another one, I am going to tackle your sorry little arse." OOOOF :D Well, folks, I yelled out another one right after that.

We are a killer team, zoyncle. :D

Looks good. What other dates are the LCs?

The buttons look good too. Always pays to be persistant.

Looking forward to next Sundays diggins :thumbsup: :icon_thumright:days digs !! :icon_thumleft:

Derek :icon_sunny:

Yoooooooo, Derek Feller Dude from Nuevo York, I am still suuuuuuuuuper psyched. You should have seen my Colonial jib smiling after excavating 4 largies right in a row. I kept looking over at them, with a zoyboy-like grin, saying, "Another coppa."

I am also excited about a signal that I got. It is an "E" on "Quarter" reading that is over 5 inches deep. I couldn't get beneath the large rock and root to get to it. I am going back to it next week, with my large relic shovel, and will dig the little buggard up. It could be another Draped Bust, because it is right near where the other two Draped Busts were found.

Keep the Colonial fever high, Dster!

I think my previous post accidentally got looked over :D

Here's what I said;

"Can someone PLEASE tell me your research secrets?
How in the world do you find these locations?"

I AM JEALOUS!!

I know... PM me just 4 or 5 little secrets.... What do you say? Pretty Please!

John Walter is a friend of Colonial Silver Zeus; he was a strict Colonial hunter, who always seems to be brought up on every one of our outings. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the kind comment, buddy!
