Hi Pat. Paul here. You beat me to it. I was gonna post a link to this story. I bet the site has already been declared off limits to the general public, especially ANYONE with a metal detector. And they wonder why relic hunters/cw buffs are crying themselves to sleep at night by the hundreds...I'm a coin shooter myself, and can only cringe at the thought of all those large cents, flying eagles, and early indians that we won't have a chance to find, in addition to all the silver coins, the possibility of a gold coin (or two!!), and hundreds, or perhaps thousands, of really cool cw relics.

Is this the one that mentioned relic hunters and Looters in one sentence?
Was a good article but when I read that part it p*ssed me Off.
