As long as it was not on a Federal park land how could ANYONE confiscate it? This is USA not Europe.
You can tell them to pound sand!
Mike did you summit the find to Minelab and is there any update on the item. I'm still so in awe of that recovery and happy that I was there. Trapper
I totally missed this post until now. Huge congrats Mike! That is an astonishing find! If the native chief/elder/brave who lost that thing, has ancestors alive today, they would call him their great great great...(~150 to 200 greats) grandfather! Whew!
Mike,
Just saw this post. All of us are happy to find any silver even if it's a 64 Rosie. How exciting to find a 5000 year old point especially in amazing shape. You deserve it as I have said in the past, you're the best detectorist I have ever met. No wonder it won our best non coin find of the month. LOL. Congrats
