I was teaching sculpture classes at a Christian university in Michigan. Not leaving much time to metal detect. Now that it is over I am out digging alot. I have found the oldest coin so far. I will post the picture when I figure how to do so. Needless to say I almost had a heart attack when it was brought out of the ground. A beautiful 1877 quarter in wonderful shape, hardly any ware at all. If anyone wants to detect in Jackson , MI in this park let me know their is several hundred acres to search and more coins to find.

I detected with him early in the spring once. You told him about me, that was was great, because I had always detected alone. We searched an ols school yard and we both found silver. I found a large piece of iron, which quaulifies me for the iron brigade, I bieieve. I have noticed several people in Jackson have been starting up metal detecting. Just yesterday in the park I search which is 250 acres their was a young couple using a xlt and a dfx. They were not to good at covering their holes up. I would like to get in touch with Jamie and search the park. I have been real busy and feel bad that I have not contacted Jamie since our last hunt. He has Fridays off as I remember. But when I found that 1877 quarter I thought must be more .I am starting a new job third shift on monday so lets see what happens.
I would love to come over and try that park. I am always looking for a good challenge! Too bad about those folks that are not covering their holes well. They need a lesson in proper technique, or it will hurt the rest of us! 
As for the Iron Brigade, all you have to do is hunt with another member of the Brigade. You hunted with Jamie, ao you are all set! Keep in touch, maybe after we get some good rain, it would be good to hit that park?
