OK, I think you are holding out on us. You have really found the entire treasure chest of silver coins but are just going to feed us a little at a time so we don't pass out with jelousy or better yet hop a plane to BVI and find you :tongue3:. Keep them coming!
 

That is soo cool. I do love this thread. Envy. It happens. WH.
 

WOW, very very cool!!! I am as excited to find out more as you are. PLEASE let everyone know what you find out, I am by no means an expert but I would say no to breaking them apart at least until I had someone look at them for you and heck yes go back where there is a stash like that there has got to be more maybe with some luck a lot more!?! Now I want an underwater unit myself. Mark that location as TOP SECRET! Oh and if you happen to see a silver Nissan 4 door pickup following you around just pay it no mind I wouldn't know anything about it. LOL Best of luck on this you may well have stumbled into something even more grand than this find!
 

OK - I have some work to do on this site in the next few week, and maybe some bad weather coning too!

Thought I would leave you with two more (front & back - 4 pics in all) from the recent find.

Thanks all!

Awww man.....that is cruel....you are just rubbing our noses in it now aren't ya? LOL

Seriously though.....it looks great! This place could keep you busy for the rest of your life! You'll be so jaded you won't have the stomach to hunt a park or public beach! Just started and I hope you haven't peaked yet! LOL

Wish I could swing a detector where I am right now. Thousands of years of untouched history buried here but pretty sure the gov here wouldn't be too happy seeing you come through customs with one in your bag........"Off with his head"!

honestly it was not that we hid behind rocks and trees, wore green and fired before you were ready The difference was we were able to communicate with each other better. Probably because we gave up drinking tea. But we cannot be called unfair. We keep trying to show you boys how it is done, 1812, WW1, WW2, By the Falklands it looks like you boys are starting to get it down, but we are here to help.

I believe this learning process is coined as "evolution".... Darwin had a theory on it. Kind of like if deer start shooting back I WILL EVOLVE.

BVI.... I haven't chimed in on this thread to date but great job and best wishes. Later.... Brad

Hey BVI,

Do you remember the famous saying our parents used to say about the Yanks ( sorry our American friends) during WW2, over paid, over sexed and over here. Very unfair I used to say

But true!!!
 

I have herd that before, "over sexed, over paid and over here,"I guess it meant we were getting all the Girls, and buying all the beer. Sorry about that lads... evolution and all that, couldn't be helped.
