Relic Hunting
TONIGHT WAS THE FIRST FOR ME TO GET OUT AND DO SOME DETECTING.WENT OUT A COUPLE OF TIMES IN THE SUMMER BUT THIS IS MY TIME OF YEAR TO START.LOTS OF BUTTONS AND COINS.VERY NICE START IN A FIELD THAT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO DETECT ON ACCOUNT OF THE NUCLEAR PLANT TRANSMISSION WIRES OVERHEAD WHICH MAKE A DETECTOR GO CRAZY BUT WHEN YOU GET ONE NEAR THE TOP OF THE GROUND IT HELPS.THE LARGE CENTS ARE 1797,1800,1816,1821 AND A NICE LITTLE CAROULUS 3 REALE.

WOW ~ those are some awesome old coins you found! CONGRAT'S!!!
 
Fantastic coin find. Yes, nuclear power transmission lines can play havoc on detectors. Keep up the great detecting even with those obstacles.

AWESOME coppas Pigeonman ... Gota a similar old spot with powerlines running 50 ft overhead right over the old foundation , causes major interference. But some days its not as bad as others , I think certain hours are better then peak hours and less current.

Maybe early morning would be a better time ?

Nice finds !!

Beautiful coins. :icon_sunny: What an awesome site you have. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 
You already said it, but WOW is the only thing I can think of. We live in a great area for the old coppers, especially near you where the suburban sprawl has not reached yet.

Go Phillies!
 
Looks like you found the spot. Congrats. :-[
 
Boy what a comeback. I like them.
 
Awesome finds Pigeonman, and thanks for the tip. There's an area I wanted to hunt, but haven't, because of powerlines. Now I think I will give it a shot anyway. Thanks for sharing! ;D
 
the funny thing is there were two rows of lines running on two separate towers.when i got under one row of lines the detector went crazy and then when i got to the other row the detector calmed down a little.you could hear the humming from the lines even with the head phones on.my old lady said i have a glow to me when i got back but it was just the excitement from all the good finds.i will post the other group of finds soon.
 
Way To Go!! Very nice finds. You got a great area there. Keep up the good
work while the weather is cooperating.

Congratulations, keep us posted on your future hunts. (blklab, KS) :icon_king: :thumbsup:
