I went south again this past weekend to get back onto the site that produced my US buckle last weekend. My dad could not join me as he was busy doing his CW re-enacting thing and I sure wish he could have been with me for the hunts Sat and Sun. I dunno what has prompted this hot streak I am on, but ever since I got my Teknetics G2 ,my relic finds have been amazing. All these finds have been from 1"to about 7-8" down so I know most other detectors would hit them too, but somebody up above must be looking down on this ole relic hunter...anyways, on to this weekend. My last trip down to the site we secured permission from an adjacent landowner to hunt his property. The first three hours produced only a couple of roundballs and then I got a loud signal reading in the low 80's. My 3rd US plate in the last 1 & 1/2 months!!!!!!! I went back on Sunday and could only hunt for 2 hours but found something I have always dreamed of finding but never thought I would hunting here in the midwest....a colonial shoe buckle!!!!!!!! @ feet away from it I dug a large brass ? trigger guard? I dunno guys, need help with the ID, but I feel it is colonial era too. Finished the day with a couple of minies and a Burnside carbine and what appears to be a fairly modern brass heart disc. Speaking with the landowner he told me that the house dates to 1797. I gotta feeling that this spot is going to produce some awesome finds as the property is huge. Now if I can just keep those darned cows away!!!!! HH'ing all!

Wow, amazing. Makes me wish I could go south for a hunt. Nice job. Making the G2 look pretty good to a lot of people. It is a funny detector to explain to people. It seems like when you hit that great target the detector makes an extra-special tone for that one good thing. Thanks, for sharing.
