What a day!!! I gained a new permission today and it was unbelievable. The old man said go ahead, but it's a waste of time that a lot have been out before to detect.

Well second signal in I get a 1899 barber half dollar. Third signal was a 1937 Washington. 5th signal of the day was an awesome civil war sword plate. The finds really started to flow after that. Buttons, shoe buckle pieces. Then I landed a second plate for the day...my first breast plate. As I was leaving I got a standing liberty quarter, which was my first.

I showed the guy my finds and I think he was impressed. He wanted the standing liberty quarter, but that was it. Said I could come back tomorrow. Giving him the quarter was well worth the permission to come back and on top of everything else I found. This is by far my best day detecting! Thanks for looking and HH!

Wow that was a great hunt! Congrats on the plates! And a nice pile of buttons. I'd like to find the other sites they've hunted if they leave that many goods in the ground. I'd hit that place hard and not leave anything for the next guy lol. Great finds again, one heck of a day. HH!
 

I'm impressed!!!
Sword plate is sweet!!!!
Congratulations
 

Holy moly! That hunt is what dreams are made of!
 

Congrats on all the finds, what a sweet spot that is. Good luck with the return hunt
 

Congratulations. You really knocked it out of the park on that hunt
 

Well worth paying a quarter admission for that site! Gotta be a at least one more decent keeper there.
 

That was well worth the cost of a SLQ! BIG CONGRATS! That is some great stuff you pulled out of there, love the belt plate! Now, go back and find the rest of what they left behind!! Great day Buddy!
 

Awesome day congrats! Love the Sword belt plate. Who ever detected there before wasn't doing it right lol. Looks to me like no one was there before you. Good Luck on your nest visit, looking forward to seeing your finds from this site.
 

My goodness that's a WICKED ASS HUNT!!!!!!!!! Your startin 15 on FIRE Matt!!! CONGRATZ on all the 1st bud... That place should treat you well for sumtime.. GL&HH.....
 

For a place that had been hit already there sure seems that there was lots of leftovers. What a great hunt you had and well worth the SLQ for sure, congrats and all the best if you're going back to try again.
 

Man you guys are killing me right now. It just keeps snowing here. It won't stop! Incredible day bud and hard to believe people missed all that stuff. Maybe they forgot to put batteries in lol
