Relic hunting in Va

I am in NoVA and am just starting out. I have been detecting for a year or so but am trying to get into relic hunting. I have not been that successful getting permission to hunt property though. Send me a pm if you are looking for someone to hunt with.
 

i live in chester VA & would love to hunt in that area...
 

When was you thinking about going name the day i will take off work if a have to,Thanks
 

What is the definition of relic I mean is it different from artifact?

I might be in central VA on Aug. 3 or 4th (Th or Fri), am free for the day. May have a couple other people w/ me that detect also. Anybody want to go detecting? ;D
PM me.
 

Go to your county courthouse and ask for the old Government Survey Plats. Sometimes they have old maps already printed out for sale. These maps will show old roads, settlements, pioneer homesteads, Indian villages, river crossings, fort sites and crossroads. Should be enough sites to keep any TH'er busy for years. Remember in the old days, banks were scarce and not trusted so old pioneer homesteaders would cache their money in post hole banks. Good luck and post photos of finds.
