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

Wow J.D., This is on my top 10 of the most impessive posts I have ever seen on Tnet, I vote banner all the way. I live in NJ and am still looking for my first reale. You had the best 3 weeks anyone could hope for. You still must be in dreamville, I would be. Just great. I think we all would like to see the coins on their own in pics so we can be in our own little dreamville viewing them up close.

I agree, banner! In fact we should move this to "The Best Of TreasureNet".
Hey how about calling Western/Eastern? I mean 16 coppers 8 reales and 3 bust coins in three weeks? They got to be interested in that story.

Time to update the banner. Awesome. The reason we detect. Thanks for posting. Looks like a lifetime of finds in a few hunts. All you are missing is a gold coin.

I hope I can find another real/reale as good as some of the ones you have posted.

You gotta be kidding me! Reales in Mo. and I thought I hunted Hard. Were you hunting at the marble factory. HH

Um ya we find them here in Mo. A few of my hunting buddies have dug them here in SW Mo.

Awesome finds JD, glad you all had a great time. We went to those same Mayan ruins 3 years ago, very cool!
