Re: Gold, Silver, & Relics

You both are good guys and my buds here. That gold cufflink is on my wish list. That site has some Colonial artifacts as well. If you hit it again, dig deep and flip that iron around (RELICDUDE07's favorite quote).

Thanks Kirk...yeah we go way back on TNet my friend....were basically like "Pison" aka "bros" on this thing we call TNet. There's definitely still some goodies hiding in that property but Jeff and I hit it hard for two days.
These are the kind of days that you definitely look forward to each year. Look forward to seeing you guys digging
some killer coppers in the next few weeks too!
