2017 was a good year - Nova’s, Hammered silver, buckles, plates, and lots of copper

Congrats on a very productive year! I'm glad we got to hunt a few times together in 2017 along with the rest of the "*******s of bramble" (even if Steve 2's evaluation of Charlie's truck is on point!) I hope to hook up with you the next time we get a heat wave, just be ready, I remember being able to dig a few times you guys up north were still froze up? Also don't forget we can hook up and hunt with those Excal's, I'm sure there are some colonial swimming holes where our forefathers took a dip up your way? I might do a recap if I ever get a spare minute (too many hobbies, not enough time)
Here is a pic of you at the Hayfield where I found two Spanish silvers after that day hunting there, lol

That is some year you put together there! All crazy old stuff too. That spanish cob half real might just get thrown in the trash by someone without much knowledge about them (like myself). Congrats on an awesome 2017 and I hope 18 is even better.
 

What a fantastic year Scrappy! I always enjoy reading your posts and seeing pictures of your finds. I share your passion for colonial era history, and you inspire me to get out there and find my own little bits and pieces. Cheers!
 

Wow, you found some nice old stuff. I love the capped bust and also that wallet spill was way cool!

It sure shows that you put in the time and effort it takes to put that much good finds on the table from just one year! Hard work pays off when you can count up all the quality finds you have found.
Look out 2018, Scrappies coming!

Much appreciated man. I really do wish I had a chance at some of those same rev buttons you guys find up there. I’ve tried my arse off to find them down here and just can’t seem to get my coil over any. I suppose that’s what I’m dedicating 2018 to!

What can I say Charlie besides thanks for all the excellent company, laughs, and excellent sites. You have put quite a few coins in my pocket and it doesn’t go unnoticed. Thanks buddy!

Well Steve you sure had an awesome year! Those Nova Constelatio are on any serious relics hunter bucket list and to nail two of them in the same year is absolutely mind blowing. A great harvest of coins, relics and fossils! :icon_thumleft:
Wishing you the best of success in 2018! :occasion14:

Haha, the feeling is mutual buddy. It blew my mind to see your year end finds as well. That’s the best motivation.
 

Congrats on a great year! Would be hard pressed to choose a favorite with so many great finds. Really like the pewter plate, I dug one from the early 1700s it's one of my favorite finds. You don't come by them often. Happy new year. Hope you have even a better 2018. Hh
 

What an outstanding year you had Steve.
The Nova's and the Liberty Cap would make anybody's year.
Continued success in 2018
 

Wow, wow, wow! Totally stunning! The BEAUTIFUL first Nova you dug, goodness what a great coin! The belt plate, silver, lost spills of items (including the cool flint/musketball spill), what a great year.

Congrats!

Wow - that's an extremely impressive haul for one year Steve, and will certainly be hard to top in 2018. But with your dedication and hard work anything's possible. Hope you can get started soon after the freeze abates in a couple weeks. Supposed to be above normal temps for us the 2nd half of Jan. Good luck and Happy New Year .... Bill
 

Looks like you had a great year! Lots of amazing finds and some in great condition. Well done Steve. :notworthy:
 

Steve,

You had an amazing year finds wise. Thanks for sharing.

Wishing you and yours a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year.

Regards + HH

Amazing year Steve. We get out of this hobby what we put into it. You go at it hard and the results speak for themselves. Two Nova's in one year is an incredible feat. The militia plate is another that I would love to dig. Best of luck in 2018.
