My last 3 hunts have been in the river. At some local spots that had heavy use turn of the century. After four hours in the river i was done. On my way home i came across a tearout. First coin 1925 wheat,then 1896 IHP,then a 1957 roise,all in about 30 mins. First pics are river finds.

6 months ago I got permission to search a lot in Fernandina Beach whose history goes back to the 1600s. The lot once held a house and then a restaurant and was across the street from the harbor.

After cleaning out the trash I found numerous musket and Minie balls, a pistol, pocket knife and assorted coins to 1853.

Two weeks after stopping I saw about 50 feet of sidewalk was removed. Found another Minie ball and a 1718 Spanish Reale. Was real glad I checked it out

Wow! I bet you were surprised when that popped out? Im waiting for the city to start on the house demo in the oldest part of my town. Thanks for looking Happy Hunting
 
I don’t recall the website but there’s a group you can connect with to return the military dogtag to the family. That means a lot to them.

Thank you, I’ve been in contact with Angelos Angels. I found the sticky in war and relic hunting tab. Hope to do a return.
