Hello T Net 10-19-20-21- 2011 :icon_sunny:

Sunny seventies Dawg here :hello:

Wed. was a half day recon mission in the pouring rain . Searched for hours ... nothin' but iron and shot gun shell tops . Smelled funny when returned with junk . Thursday , I hit an area of an old 1760's vanished long ago home . A random search yielded some iron and sore dogs , dead batteries , nothin' but a Royal butt kicking ... 40 mph sustained winds did keep the flying insects away but only small traces of what was supposed to be a old home After multiple different sector searches I left with nothing but sore muscles , wasted gas , a beaten dawg :P reaking with a distinctive odor of dismal failure . $:-\$ Ready to bag this site & look elsewhere at this time. $:-\$ Last night I knew something was wrong , :sign13:

a quick call to the land owner put me in the right area . Seems I was 100 yards off track . Today ......... I kicked some Colonial home site A$$ :wink:

HH Thanks for stopping in , dawg

Welcome back in Colonial fashion, Dawg. :headbang:

You definitely bombarded that site with your detector. I always enjoy viewing the colorful pottery shards from your Colonial sites. :hello2:

The King George coppers are just icing on the Dawg cake.

Hit that site until you fall over.

Colonial JACKPOT Dawg!!! Great recoveries and if you don't find a single other coin or relic this month, you have already had a great October. It's not the mill but it will definitely keep you occupied. WTG, Quindy.

Thats a hell of a hunt. Persistance pays off!! These finds are killing me, my best colonial field had a slow soy bean growth and I wont be able to get on them for at least a few more weeks..Keep it up! :icon_thumleft:

jerseyben · Oct 21, 2011

Pretty good hunt there, got a good share of coppers. That small piece with the very small tines under the horse's teeth looks to be a lice comb that they used to brush the lice out of their hair, congrats :icon_thumleft:

MR I needed this after the Hurricane Irene ruined my Sept . hunt time .... all is fixed and it feels good to be in here again .. :icon_scratch:

been awhile and this one was close to not getting found . It is not my Mill but it may be the only place I need . A friend has a ghost town invite coming within a few weeks ... only way in is by canoe .

Hey J man I have to read your latest I left early but :coffee2:

is keeping me going . Coppers were around 4-6 inch and sandy soil made them sound sweet in head phones , buttons were jumpin' out from everywhere when I started clearing out the iron ....had enough iron near what was an old barn to load a pickup

lice comb wonder if it is old :icon_scratch:

200 year old lice eggs may have to get that thing outdoors :laughing9:

Thanks
