Bull Head rather than Bulldog. 1816 was the first year of a new reformed coinage where the metal value did not have to equal the face value, so it was Britains first “token” coinage. Nice find. Andy
Again, so many of those Indians were in great shape- it's just amazing! There's gotta be an XF 77 hiding in there somewhere! Oh, and those 2 silvers werE pretty damn good themselves- Fantastic hunt!
Try using your pinpoint her to lock onto the target location before you dig… turn on to max setting of 3…. Make a cross over the target area and lock on before you dig and you won’t hit the targets as often. You’d be surprised how often the Pinpointer can detect the target.
Thanks Tony! Yeah, the summer time is when I'm usually the busiest. That's why I try and cover the entire summers and winters worth of videos when crops are off. It's not easy, and I fell short this spring. I have a couple more in the bank yet ill put out on the next month or so. Thanks again and take care 😊👍
Wow, you really got onto some goodies in this one. I've been watching a guy called "The Scottish Detectorist". He finds British coins a lot, of course. He deciphers the Latin abbreveations all the time. I think it says George III, by the grace of God, King of Brittania, Ireland and Scotland. That first fatty Indian(actually all the Indians) is in really nice condition. Thanks.
Hey Callie! Thanks yes that spot really surprised me that day! Especially since me and Mikey hit it a few years prior and Mikey's no slouch with his machine! Thanks again 👍😊
No I'm not leaving, I only hunt in the spring before fields are planted and the fall after harvest. So I try and get my videos during that time . If I get the itch bad enough I go during the summer but projects around the house and lots of overtime at work has kept me busy this summer.
Awesome finds! Youre videos always inspire me to get back out. I have not tuned in awhile" blame it on Pickleball Summer" but now im back into detecting mode and i see now you have the At Max. Are you loving it?
I miss my Pro tones, but yes, I like it. Boy, it's definitely more powerful, that's for sure. On these iron patches, I have to turn the sensitivity way down. Never had to do that with the pro. Even with the Sharpshooter coil, I still have to. Hitting those deep square nails every 3 steps is annoying. I know it would help with deep goodies, but most of my goodies are less than 5 inches anyways so I'm not keen on it. So I turn it down. I'll gage every spot I guess for sensitivity adjustments. It'll be fine... 👍
We were when I was in school, BIG TIME, lol. But a few years after I graduated, Hillsdale changed conferences, and we no longer play them in sports. That's been a little bit ago, I'm 50 now, lol.
@@TheHillsdaleBoys same. I lived in Michigan 25 years, moved to Tennessee for 25. My kids are grown. Im moving back to Michigan. Metal detecting sucks in tn. Very strict. I was working there in that area probably about 92. Had me a bounty hunter tr500 detector at that time. Still have it. Kind of a joke now but im glad I kept it. I promote your channel. Keep sending it!! 😃
Hey Andy, I was going back and watching some of your videos, love all the coins you found, love the bull head. Was you using the sniper coil here and what advantage did it give you in the corn field?
Thank you,, yeah, I'm definitely a coin shooter. Yeah, it's the Nel Sharpshooter coil. It's 9.5 X 5.5, and it's absolutely perfect for the high iron, long gone field homesites.The depth is astonishing as well for such a small coil. Especially in corn stubble. Corn stubble is tuff because your swinging areas are small, the small coil really helps in that situation. The Sharpshooter is my full time coil.
Google search your county and 1870 "atlas" or "map". It's all u can do. Then try your local register of deeds office. They may have the big old atlas. 😊👍 good luck
Lol, sometimes I remember to pull it out and sometimes I don't. My mind isn't there, meaning everything I find I keep, and I'm never thinking of the monetary value for someday possibly selling. Someday, I may dig something and regret it, I know. I was so excited, I'm not surprised i forgot to grab it, lol.
Guess it depends on how hard they look at the micro finish when you send one out but like you said, dug coin, 150 plus years in a farm field being plowed every year. I'm lucky it was in as good of shape as it was. I don't think it was lost from the original settlers of that site. I'll bet it was lost much later and was a keep sake of later inhabitants. It was in to good of condition in my book.
