Great! You got yourself some fine and early coins! Lots of hunts there Louie...Were these all your hunts or just the ones where you found something notable? Great to see somebody working the dirt year round! Well Done!

Thanks Mud!
I get out one or twice a week every weekend all year. Last year I think there was only one or two weeks I didn't get out. Probably due to thunderstorms more than snow.
95% of the time I'm detecting old farm fields or in the woods. I also try to do allot of reasearch on local colonial history and try to stick to the areas of the old settlements. Belive me there were a good bit of days I go out and not find anything. I just try to keep being persistent in these big fields by grid searching and sometimes I get lucky sometimes I don't lol.

Well its evident you got a good system/hunting strategy that produces results, and from the dates of your hunts, you are out hitting it..Research+effort+experience=results....We could learn a lot from your deeper knowledge I'm sure! Again, very impressive work Louie! I'm gonna have to go take a look at your youtube vids I guess...
