Oh....and Bart? Just a side of advice?

Enjoy it! While you can.

Thanks! But, like I've said...back here....in the *real* world.

You're doing just fine.
Same world.
We take what comes on a hunt.

I can recall some years back jumping around multiple sites with a new doin great setting from a prior hunt , and ending the day with two modern cents.
Was not the sites cause. Or the cents. Or the settings.
Might have been the life form swinging the detector...But it was a two cent day regardless.
Obviously should have framed them and put them on the wall! L.o.l..
I was careful in trying not to insult the hunt , lest I get skunked on a future hunt.

Can still recall my oldest silver and not molesting it by rubbing what ever it was and slipping it into a padded pill bottle discreetly to check out later.
Did continue to detect the immediate area well enough to not regret it later. But it was just one of those trashy spots others had not dug that tiny peep on a tiny spot , and the other items the coin was in tight with that spoke louder than the coin.

It was just what turned up on a site that has produced for others over many years.
Age appropriate to locale , and history of locale seeing old coin.
Which is not as old as Bart's site. But is what it is.
I also recovered a watch's guts where a backhoe dug a drain. Old enough to perhaps be related to why I was there.
Would like to have found the case....
A silver one was recovered (by someone else prior) from an area with fairly dense trees six inches +_ in diameter that were not there during the time period I was hunting.
Making for a deep layer of time. And dicey with my detector...
But hey , we take em as they come. For what they are , and for what exists where we are hunting.

DEAR LORD THANK YOU AGAIN !!

Holy cow Bart! You're giving me the 'tecting fever... I'm about ready to go dig in the snow!

That pillar dollar is near mint condition! Lot's of sharp details that I'm sure will be beautiful if you decide to clean it. Congrats!

 

[Blak bart]

Holy cow noah....im still trembling !!

Mehh.
There's a saying on another site , (non detecting related) when someone makes a good score , the top compliment is a "You suck!"
So Bart , you suck! l.o.l.. Now you're in the same league as Dracula. And straws....

Bart,

Enjoy it when you're in "perfect" detecting mode.

I was happy dancing with a DOT worker....he had no idea what I found but he was jumping up and down too !!

 

[bill from lachine]

Metal detecting is a funny hobby/obsession. Those that have been at it for awhile get hooked by the unique and oddball finds we make. Not always valuable but different.

This crude more than likely handmade two toned gold ring was one of them at least for me.

35 years in the business world and this guy gets it....unlike a lot of the MBA's I worked with at the tail end of my career.

Congratulations Bart on the great day of recoveries. WOW!
I'm still wondering if you hurt?

Bart must have passed out last night after all that adrenalin dumping. heh

Amazing coins he has managed to salvage.,,, and definitely another banner.

If I were him... I would already be out there with a headlamp :P

I would have coffee and donuts for the workers waiting for them.
