Results are in! The 3 judges picked their favorite 4 and then we each blindly rated the overall favorite picks from 1 to 10, then I added all our votes and the top 3 highest numbers became our top 3. Congrats to the top 3! I will be contacting each winner individually with pictures of the prizes you can pick from, after the winners all choose their prizes I will also post them here so people can see what everyone won. Please give me a few days to contact the winners, I will be out of town for a couple days and also need to take pictures of all the options, etc. You should hear from me within the next few days and I'll post all the prizes next week. Winners are as followed
1st = pa-searcher
2nd = bergie
3rd = bobac
Thanks again everyone for taking part

I was joking with the guys on the chat forum last night that I wanted to go out this morning for a few hours to the site where i got last weeks 1847 half dime and find her twin sister so it wouldn't be so lonely.After a half hour and digging lots of lead and some brass casings,I dug what once again i thought was another headstamp and once again I was so wrong.My heart goes out to cgw007 who lost his mom on friday and was unable to join me.Although not as good of shape as my other one I shall cherish it just as much and will always wonder what a coin minted in New Orleans was doing up here in the hills of Pennsylvania.
Found this nice Civil War infantry button best one I have found. Still has some of the gilding the one it.USA AT-PRO
Well, I know the month is young yet, but I will throw this little guy in the ring.
I dug this up on 10/2 ? I think.....
It was from a park where we have pulled some 1800s stuff.
From what I can dig up online I see that the Hickok buckle company was formed in 1909 in Rochester NY on Water street.
After the passing of the founder the two sons created the Hickok best pro athlete award belt as tribute to their father.
They had big awards ceremonies every year in Rochester to present the award.
Recipients include Muhammad Ali , OJ Simpson, Pete Rose, Phil Rizzuto, Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, ..........
I haven't yet got an exact date on this particular buckle, but the similar ones on Ebay are saying 1920s.......
I found this one with my CTX3030. It was around 11 inches deep and under two brutal roots I just had to cut....I almost let it go cus I had just dug 3 pieces of aluminum antenna earlier, but they were not quite that deep.
