Top Treasure Finds

Well folks ive been hunting this spot for about two months now and have been finding some purdy cool items but never thought I would have pulled this baby out of the dirt...Im purdy sure its real but I see that there are alot of fakes how can I tell for sure and how much do I need to clean it??

Just went out in my yard for an hour or so and pulled an 1875 S seated liberty 20¢ coin. The pics don't do it justice the details are amazing.

Thought these were all disolved to dust by now, but popped this one out of a Virginia Trench today Three ringer with full, intact pigskin powder bag. Still full of powder. Clean sand must've helped.



Then a couple of feet away, I pull out a Maryland Cross Kepi pin! Digging buddy told me these were pretty rare. I can't find a dug one on the web. Anybody know just HOW rare? And were these worn by Union Maryland, or Confederate Maryland or both? Solder points for two attachment pins are present on the back...

This Saturday Tom and I made plans to hit two of our well pounded but still productive colonial sites. The first site we hit was is a VERY early site for our area. Between the two of us, we have hit this place over 30 times. But we hadn’t been there since the last plowing. On the way I mentioned that despite finding dozens of coppers between us, the place had only given up 4 silver coins that we know of. Upon arriving at the site, I dug a small tombac right off the bat. A minute later I had another signal that was reading in the high 50’s on my F75. I was thinking another button...

I've been digging about two years now and although I've found some good stuff, this is my favorite so I figured it would make a good 1st "today's find" post for me. And I want to thank my digging buddy Larry (aka "Two Pockets") for getting me hooked. I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me what Sheldon # she is. Thanks in advance!

Almost died when I saw this button today!! Been detecting this farm for 2 years now. the house was built in 1789 i have found many buttons there but this will be my favorite button that i will ever find but u never know i could find another.

Hi t neter.
Really great hunting on Saturdays, from 10 to 15 hours. Ideal for flat land, good weather, no footprints. Roman area, village, many many years.

thanks for watching ossi

My dad once again has to take credit for securing these houses,what once was 3 late 1800's houses,which now are 1,thanks to past hurricanes.the owner secured one side property after, The one remaining house was way outta place with the rest of the homes built in the time period,so of course ,my thinking was there was money living there,first pic is the garbage
[
then of course there is the treasure

I looked it up in redbook,does the 3rd lowest mintage make it a semi key date or no

Enjoy

I had one hour to hunt after work today before dark, had nowhere to go but the same place I've been beating up for the past 4 years. The safari screamed silver with a good solid 38 hit. 4 inches down was this beautiful lady staring me in the face!!

Wow. I'm still in lala land after finding this. I'm at Diggin In Virginia and it was a long, tiresome day of digging a ton of iron and a few bullets. Around 2 I headed to another field where I had previously found my US box plate. On my way through the first field I picked up a small mule shoe that someone dug and left beside the hole. This must have been my lucky horse shoe because about 2 hours after that I had a beautiful CS confederate tongue at about 6 inches down.

I knew it was a tongue when I pulled it out, but was floored to see CS staring back at me. It was a lot of hard work up...
