Hey all! I actually found this stuff 2 days ago but just found my cable to hook the camera to the pc today. Anyway, I started the day off meeting with James at a local gas station and we got some breakfast and headed to meet Nana and her husband Charlie at an area that has a lot of history. On the way we stopped by a old boy scout camp to see if it was still accessible and as I figured, the gate was busted in but there were no tresspassing and keep out signs every where so we moved along to our original destination.
We met Nana and Charlie and hunted and talked a couple of hours and determined that the site would be a good winter place due to all the thick foilage. Nana ditched us after that so we headed over to a church and detected for a little while but it was to darn hot so we sat in the shade and talked about places to hunt with shade. We drove to Trussville and hit a few places and that's where I found this stuff. It was nice to finally meet Nana and maybe next time we can have a better game plan on a cooler day or maybe just find a spot worthy enough to have Nana hunt with us at. Just Kidding. She was just as nice in person as she is on here and her husband is as well. I found my oldest coin to date(with a metal detector that is) A 1925 wheat. Also found a piece of a buckle, a couple of bullets, a convertible, and sterling silver St. Christophers medal along with all the other junk like pull tabs, clad, etc. I also came across a Geo Cache(my first) in the park near the old foundation to the prison and inside were several different items and a little notebook to sign and it said it was Alabama's first cache. James and I signed it and left a little gift for the next person.
As always, if anyone knows any information or has any input on my finds, please let me know.
Thanks and Happy Hunting Everyone,
Ed
