I am Tim, I am the OP, I am still alive, I still live in Florida. Yes, bulk sale, yes, one individual, no questions asked, all cash deal. Many regrets, we've all made mistakes, yes, I made mine. I try to not dwell on what I done, but what's done is done. I'm an old man now, I just got over it, time takes care of regrets. I still metal detect when weather and a good location and health present itself. Yes, this is a true story, it is now, and will always be, my find of a lifetime. Yes, I do regret disposing of "the harvest" in the way we chose to all those many years ago (going on 20 years). I probably received 1/100th (if even that) of what they were worth individually or at auction. 1000+ coins, 1 single hole, all copper, all silver, all gold, zero clad.
I'm glad my story has inspired others to get out and use their metal detector. Private out of the way areas and overgrown edges of fields near long gone structures, stumps and odd looking depressions, even an out of place brick, bottle or post could possibly have a backstory someone didn't want made public and buried their secret. Nobody knows what's buried underground. I know for a fact the area of the pitfall had been detected many times before over the decades. Use your youth and get out there and swing that coil !
I'm old now, sorta bad health, and I hope my story continues on long after I'm gone.
Always HH
