Colonial KirkPA Lives Up To His Name...COLONIAL!

Colonial KirkPA · Oct 5, 2008

Forum,

The 3 self-proclaimed professional detectorists from the group the "3 Datectateers" got as usual on this great Sunday. :headbang:

Dudes, as you may already know, we hunt with an extreme passion that has NEVER dwindled! If we ain't detecting, we are thinking about this hobby. When we talk about this hobby, we don't talk like drones...nope, we are suuuuper spastic at it. :laughing3:

If some baboon heard us talking, it would definitely know we had some kind of passion within. :laughing3:

Folks, let me tell you, our ANALOGS were juiced up and ready to pillage the doyt of all its worth! Nope, we ain't searching for them "newer" coins, as John Walter would put it. :laughing3:

We went searching for COLONIALS! :icon_thumright:

To make a long story suuuuper short, I was sweeping in the area where I dug my 2 coppas yesterday, when I was welcomed with a "TABS" reading. :dontknow:

Since this is a Colonial site, I decided to dig! :icon_thumright:

After plucking out numerous amounts of historic doyt, the greenie was in the soil!!! :headbang:

I was really suprised to have dug this Colonial coppa at this kind of reading. Folks, since the coin is kind of beat up, I tumbled it for 5 minutes and brought out some da-tail. :headbang:

It looks like a 1695-1701 William III Halfpenny, but it most likely is a King George III coppa! :icon_thumright:

The coin is 6.03 grams and 26.5 mm. in diameter! :laughing7:

I am now up to 12 coppas for the year! :headbang:

Our group has 38 for the year! :headbang:

To end this story, I will end it now. :laughing3:

I can tell you, dudes, we didn't disappoint once again! 9-0, BuckleBoy! :wink:

Keep your passion high! :thumbsup:

We're not worthy :notworthy:

Dang Kirk,
You are killing out there. :thumbsup:

That "PA" must stand for Pretty Awesome or Powerful Analog.

Great find Dude.
-Doug-
P.S. You got some purdy hands.

BuckleBoy · Oct 5, 2008

Well Done! That is one FINE copper.

Hell, it's even better than an axe head. :tongue3:

And that Wm. & Mary your uncle found is Top Notch.

Keep it up. :thumbsup:

Nice going buddy :thumbsup:

The analog xlpro is the coppa' finding king without a doubt. Seriously...regardless of what newfangled machine comes out...my xlpro ain't goin' nowhere. You 3 just keep on pullin' out the good stuff from that site. I have no doubt you'll pull out a few more goodies. Wonder why that critter read as a tab

D. Dude,

Heeeyyyyy, man, it is nice to hear from my MAIN Colonial friend! D., I knew you would love to see these Colonial KirkPA Colonials! :thumbsup:

It was a great weekend of hunting, considering our demise last week with all the rain.

I have a feeling that my goal of 20 coppas for the year will be reached before Jan. 1 gets here! :thumbsup:

KKC won't let you down, D. Dude! We are crossing our fingers....crossing our fingers....crossing them with our Colonial passion!

Keep your Colonial passion at a high!

K. Dude :icon_sunny:

Doug,

LMAO...Powerful Analog! I love it, man!

It proves that it isn't the machine, but how you use it.

Go get those CW relics, buddy.

Kirk :thumbsup:

Big Guy,

Thanks for your reply! Hmmmm...the coin is most likely a counterfeit, so that is why it read so low. :icon_scratch:

I would NEVER sell my Pro XL. In my eyes, it is one of the most underrated machines!

If they harvest a new field on the farm, we should be set for awhile since this field is drying up.

You did it again, buddy!!

You went out to your field with high passion and found what you were after....that's the definition for "Success"!!

Hope you can keep your streak alive next week, my friend from PA!!

Congrats,

Dan,

I did it again, my friend, and it was fun as hell! This field doesn't have many signals, but when you do get one, it is most likely a coppa. :thumbsup:

I have a feeling that the "3 Datectateers" will strike some more coppas next weekend! We don't expect this field to produce anymore, since we killed it for about 20 hours or more. It was kind to us though...it gave us 10 coppas!

Keep on searching that wilver park, my friend from SoCal!

Buck,

Thanks, man, for your reply! It sure was nice to see all of those greenies in the hole.

With all these coppas being found in the area, that Lathing Hatchet is showing more history behind it!

I dug a 1694 William & Mary this year as well!

K. Dude

20 Coppas

? PFFFFffffffffTT ! I would'nt be surprised you put 40 coppas in your back pocket before the year ends SIMPLY because I know KKC hunts in ARTIC conditions and carries hammers & chisels :notworthy:

Colonial KirkPA · Oct 6, 2008

K. Dude

Been there done that. One Winter I was so anxious I tracked throught knee deep ice water to get to the site... the funny part? It was a farm field and would have only taken one more minute to go around. :icon_jokercolor:

But it was too late and seeing the snow had melted on my little Rosa hill I had to give it a shot! (near freezing my toes off in the process)

I guess I should have worn something on my feet.
