    Excellent finding that old Indian-head cent, finding something like that is as rare as “hen’s teeth!” I was just as happy as you were with that find !
    Great finding those old shotgun head stamps too. You’re really adding some rare and interesting ones to your collection.
    That piece of metal looked like the broken end off of a plow moldboard to this old farm boy, too.
    Thanks for taking us along…and stay well.

    I believe in some areas, the people had such a challenging time earning money, that they were super careful with what had. Carelessness in the days where a penny had real value, could be costly for a family. Literally. Seems like a reasonable explanation to why in some areas so little money is found.

    My brother found a cannon ball on his property when he was making a garden place, he turned it over to the old Cotton patch restaurant to display with the other things they had but the restaurant closed and I don't know where the cannon ball is now
    Have a good one 🧡🇺🇸🎗️
    The restaurant was at Parkers Crossroads, it's still a restaurant but it's different and is called Patty's now
    This is a huge civil war area and they used to have the re in actments out in the field at Crossroads area

    • @donnielaws7020

      Welcome aboard my friend. I have only started metal detecting little over a year and a half ago now. I first started out using the Teknetics Delta 4000 detector and It's a great machine simple to use. I still love and use it. Only reason i use the Equinox is so when i get in a lot of trash i can tell the deference between targets. ( Iron. Copper, Brass, Aluminum, silver, Gold, etc..) I wanted to know what was down there, not just that something was down there around these old house sites. There can be 1000's of targets at a site. SO which do you dig? Like the lottery! If i can ever learn it. I'm still learning my friend and by no means an expert. So i have to use it to learn it like anything else. Nothing wrong with older machines for finding things at all and i fully understand. Thanks so much for your comment and subscribing my friend.
