I just received another

[CASPER-2]

email from another museum in western ma.
military and transportation - they are in process of building now
and I have a small collection of pre WW I RELICS found in area museum is being built
they would like items for a display - told them Id be willing to put what I got on loan
so they are going to contact when ready - stuff is just sitting in ryker boxes in cellar - so why not share
will post pics down the road if/when they do this

sample of finds - wish I had stuff from my teenage yrs (late 70s) too from there - had some awesome and rare stuff from there back then
but sold for insurance and gas for car when I was like 17-18
these finds are from the late 90s - they built a bunch of companies on top of most of the site now (wish I had known and got in their when they broke ground)

That's awesome Casper. You're becoming a regular favorite with local museums it seems! You should inquire about becoming the designated relic procurer for those museums, I'm sure they can get you access to some nice historic places Definitely hope to see some pics.

Happy Hunting!

Sorry to bring it up but I would make sure that you verify in writing that your stuff is on loan and not a donation. I had a friend loose a large relic collection to a museum.

promote the hobby in a positive light, and the doors will open for some awesome sites.

will be having something written up and notarized - will make sure they have insurance too

Great to work with your local Historical Society also, can open up some doors for future hunts and gives us Metal Detectorists a good name.

Great Job as always Casper! Some day I'll make it out your way for a water hunt!!
