Colonial settlement, Gettysberg, and Mayan temples!!

[j.d. in the usa]

Howdy everyone Oct. was wild month for me, I went to gettysberg and found a wedding ring lost 10 years ago and as reward i got permission to detect a farm 1 mile from gettysberg!!! and got to detect and concentrate on a colonial village long forgotten about in NJ..then we went to chichen -itza and cozumel on a cruise that was just awsome... I spent 3 weeks hunting in NJ Oct... 2 days in Pa.
I have bags of relics, bullets, jewelry, and coins from the hunts it will take me weeks to take pics of everything im gonna post a day by day of the hunts on my website in the next few weeks...
but here are some shots of the finds , the best coin finds were a couple NJ coppers, some reales, a few beautiful capped bust coins i put the good coin finds in plastic sleeves... a rare button Smiley , 3 pocket watches, 1 colonial and 1 victorian era change purses, a monster supply of buckles!! lol lol... it was just a great time and lots of finds... i cant wait to go back in the spring

Great finds! Which ship were you on? My wife and I were on our honeymoon in Oct. and we also went on Carnival to Cozumel andbut we didn't want a 5-hour bus ride to Chichen-Itza (I wish we had though). We were on the Valor. What part of NJ were you detecting in?

[j.d. in the usa]

that particular farm in pa thats in the pics no spanish silver was found there... i detected many diff. spots over a 3 week period 8 hours + a day... 6 of the 8 spanish silver coins were found in 1 spot on 1 day in a 10 min. period , the other 2 were found at different locations the main spot that was detected was a colonial settlement spot in NJ which i have not posted pics of.

Those finds are definitely worth the BANNER!!! Can't wait to see them all cleaned up. I've gotta get myself over to NJ and find an old colonial settlement to hunt. Congrats on an amazing metal detecting journey!
