Wow, your diggings are right up my alley! Those colonial-era relic-hunting sites were my favorite "happy hunting grounds", back in my detecting days.
That 1920 PCGS MS64 Pilgrim half was pretty nice, with its subtle toning. A really good friend of mine in Greece really, really wanted it, so I...
Hey, @Granbeck- you missed the boat on this one, but as of this post, I have LordM Giveaway #51 up and running. The drawing for that one will be...
Oh- you too, @dano and @Mark1971. Thanks for taking time to post the updates.
Thanks for the update, @mrbadexample. Say... since your username's initials are MBE, the Queen should give you an MBE, eh?

I’m just north of you now (Brunswick, GA.)
Sound choice, in my opinion. That one, despite the old crease in it, might have some potential, if the counterstamp could be identified, and...
Yes. It is a tourist replica of a Spanish cob, clearly marked COPY in compliance with the 1973 Hobby Protection Act. It is only a novelty item.
The United Kingdom has some of the most liberal treasure laws in Europe, if not the world, as I understand it. If a find is declared "treasure...
It is certainly educational, and that "tuition" pays dividends further down the road. Today's research opens the door to tomorrow's great...
Wow, what a stunning example!
You're good. I read your post over on CU. Sound choice. (If someone doesn't buy it out from under you again. LOL.) ;)
