American Diggers

[Jonzer]

After seeing captions on this forum suggesting that we boycott this Spike TV show, I had to watch and see what it is all about.
Laughable is what I concluded.
Scripted acting, unusually clean finds, unrealistic prices fetched for simple treasure.
I think it is all a fake.
Boycott stupidity.

They should stick to digging up outhouses.
I actually accidently dug thru an old outhouse while trenching a new construction site.
Me and my coworkers found many old bottles and ceramic crocks.
Very cool finds to me. But Hey, Im a treasure hunter.

how about the pipes and the points,
sure looked like a mound that was dug right through the middle of it

Did you see the episode last night where they were in Jamestown and discovered the cannon in the lake? This will give Archaeologists ammunition now because if you get guys going near that site with metal detectors where the digs are ongoing, metal detectorists will be seen as looters. I live near Cupids (1610), Newfoundland which is the second oldest English settlement in North America behind Jamestown and wouldn't go near there with a 10 foot pole!....There are signs there stating you can get a $100,000 fine and so many years in jail if you disturb the area...But again that wouldn't deter some guys!
