Went back up to the hill today and took Tom with me. He's the guy that loaned me his e-trac and took me to some of his sites when I first got here. We both had lots of good finds. He got the oldest coin, a silver 1794 Kreuzer (similar to the one I got yesterday). I found a couple buckles and a very small one (that I'm hoping turns out to be medieval). A silvered cane tip, a couple coins and musket balls, plus my first tombac dandy button! Thanks for looking and HH, Dave.

Another terrific hunt for you, Dave! I love those buckle, especially the small one! I wouldn't be surprised if it's medieval. Also, congrats on your first tombac dandy button!

Tired of you yet....heck no...keep those finds acomin. Are you using the internet to ID your finds or do you have the help of a guru, like we have Dan over here.

Both. We have a couple guys over here (German) who know the history very well and also do a lot of detecting.

Thanks Tony. Can you believe I'm up to 10 buckles now? I wonder how many I will have after 3 years? LOL!

Keep the posts coming Dave! Looks like you'll have a potato sack full of musket balls in 3 years time! That could add some baggage cost on your eventual plane trip back across the pond!
