Ok, I have always been fascinated by the thought or possibility of finding Civil War relics but nothing like this .......... =) H.H.

What a great story... I cannot imagine the thrill Mr. Williams experienced with this find, as well as, many of the others. I would enjoy hearing of (and seeing)other artifacts that he has unearthed. My hat is off to all of the relic hunters who have helped tp preserve our history. John, thanks for b...

This was very exciting! We found an old turn of the century abandoned house that had burnt down years ago. Me and my hunting partner Dan Bobo decided to dig and sift the inside and pulled out hundreds of coins between the both of us. Some silver. I came out with 14 half dollars, 23+ quarters, nickels, dimes, and 250-300 pennies. A gold ring, A silver ring and a earing. Also, Brass knuckles, Marbles, Old bottle toppers and other odds and ends. Needless to say, Were not finished! H.H. =)

I got a lot of digging done today. I found a silver (plated) spoon marked 1847 Rogers Bros. 43 pennies, 1 quarter, and 5 dimes. Also, 4 cars (1 very old). Not to mention all the iron trash. I've never found so many pennies in one area. Time to rest the back.

There are a lot of reasons that people love to Metal Detect. Some people do it for the love of History. Some do it for the hope of treasure. While others do it for the love of coins and relics. Here is one example that covers all three (3). A 1901 S barber quarter found and then sold at auction. A metal detector hobbyist dream. Enjoy and Happy Hunting DiggerZ....... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wp476YDAmis&feature=youtu.be

Just a heads up DiggerZ. 1919 Mercury Dime (double die). Could be worth some money sense one has never been seen before. H.H. =)

A newly confirmed doubled die obverse for a 1919 Winged Liberty Head dime has the specialty collecting community excited.
