And all I ever find is money when I’m out detecting...and WWII relics...and gold and silver jewelry...could be worse I guess. The last two weekends I dug up two 1883 coins, so that was cool, and a bag of coins from the 1920s to 1940s, and that was cool too, but I’m still waiting for the mega treasure score that I can retire on. *sigh*

Anyone else out there that gets their exercise by hiking and digging in dirt?

I used to- but the North East is a hard place for finding gold (I’ve only found about $2 maybe of flour gold- one small nugget)- but pretty good for artifacts, though some of the states won’t allow prospecting because of the historical aspect of the sites-

Got a friend down in Texas who finds a lot of war memorabilia- (buttons, coins, belt buckles, lapels, sword pieces, lots and lots of ammo, some still intact, etc-)
