Hey everyone,

Got out for a few trips over the last few weeks. Been really hot here close to 90. So if your not out in the morning or evening forget about it.

I had a couple of productive hunts. I checked over the whole colonial site I just last hunted. I was only able to sqeeze one more target out of the place.

It was the small little diamond rectangular pin or something in the pic. It ended up being a one time thing. Must have been a small colonial site there for a short time.

No heavy relics were found. Not even any iron present. Just coins and buttons. I can't complain though. It's nice getting the goods without having to remove all the trash first.

But the other day I was sitting in my house. My boys are outside playing. My son comes in and says daddy I found some marbles. I'm thinking it's probably newer one's he has around the house.

But when I took a closer look and sen they were older and dirty I said hey were did you get them. Of course he lied to me and said daddy I got them in the woods.

I said O.K to myself and didn't think much of it. Then about ten minutes later he comes back with more. You know me being a treasure hunter had to go out and see where they were getting them from.

It turns out my neighbors porch has a dropp off that goes into the yard. Well he had red bricks bordering the wall. All the marbles were trapped inbetween the wall and the bricks.

The even had old silver paint on them from when the porch was painted yrs ago. Most look to be from the 60's. But a few look like they are from the 40's. And they actually found a clay one to.

There were 21 total. I'm sure there are more over there. When he rips it all out. He will let the boys check for more. There always out hunting these boys.

I cleaned them all up. And will add them with the other few hundred I've dug detecting.

Now a break down of the finds.

One rare date 1893 S barber Quarter.
One 1937 Merc

Two 1922 P.G.H Railways Tokens
One Old Red Goose Shoes Token

Six Wheat Cents
Two Buffs 1932 And A 192?

Hope you all like the pics and story.

It's Friday and with all you got going at home, good to see you are letting loose a bit. Rock on my friend. Hope you get out this weekend.

I plan to go early morning tomorrow, then go into work for 5 or 6 hours as I have been assigned as the engineer to some new business we have and it's one and half months behind already...uggg. Working hard this weekend will make next week survivable (maybe...lol)

Cheers bro!
