Due to the amount of emails requesting us to go back to re hunt the old church grounds, we have returned to the old site this weekend in the hope of rescuing some medieval artefacts. Sorry for some of the poor quality in this video, I have had to compress it quite a bit to save time on uploads due to poor broadband speeds

We go digging again. Will we find ANYTHING??? Watch and see…

WHILE ON A CLUB DIG WE FIND A ROMAN COIN HOARD AND I MANAGED TO FILM IT LIVE !

I found a lot of nice old coins and relics in July. I was surprised to find my oldest wheat penny in my yard, from 1916. I was also surprised to find a musket ball in my backyard. I also went to the old inn and detected the dirt pile where I found an old button, wheat penny, and gold ring in the past. This time I found a musket ball and an Indian Head Penny from 1880. The Indian Head is in beautiful condition except for a small part of it on the front of it. I also found my first ever arrowhead. The arrowhead is broken, but its still a cool find. I made some good finds this month. Thanks for watching everyone. HH.

On November 13th I went metal detecting at my neighbor’s house, which was built in 1695. I decided to focus on an area that I hadn’t detected much. I had been digging miscellaneous pieces of trash all day, when I got a sold penny/zinc-penny signal at about 4 inches deep. When I dug down, staring me right in the face was a big gold ring. This was my 2nd gold ring of 2011 and my 3rd in one year. When I went home to clean it up, I saw that it was from the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy – Class of 1965. On the inside I read the initials “JPD”. When I saw that I knew what I had found. I found my neighbor’s class ring. The next day, I brought it over to my neighbor and returned it to him. He was pretty happy to have his ring back and I actually received a reward. The reward consisted of a few old coins, and some finds my neighbor’s brother made while he stayed here for a month and detected. Today when I was detecting, although I didn’t find much, I had an encounter with a 10 point buck and a doe. The buck got pretty close to me before it ran away. That was something I will never forget. The ring was a great find, but I’m glad that I returned it back to my neighbor.

adventureswithjim.com Sorry for the delay in my metal detecting vids everyone, I have been helping out around my uncles place for about a month now and haven’t had time to go out and metal detect like I usuially do.

This vid is of two hunts. The first is another trip to the old picnic grounds and the second is a return the the old farmhouse from the video, “Walking with History” I went back a little more familiar with the E-trac and running recovery fast and got some goodies out of the ground! Got a few firsts in this vid as well. Hope you enjoy!

www.adventureswithjim.com Had some more fun this weekend metal detecting 18th century sites with Blackcrow. More flat buttons and odds and ends…someday gonna get a coin out of one of those sites!

Out metal detecting in the woods again and this time I found my 1st ever half dollar and its silver!!!

Metal Detecting Some 1800′s Items – Two for sure, but maybe three or more finds from the 1800′s. I’ve had it with the fact other people are out there metal detecting. www.metaldetectorx.com To find the treasures I must get in to the tall grass and avoid the horse dung. I must go where no man has gone before with a metal detector. In areas like this, you make your own luck. This hunt also taught me a valuable lesson. I was hunting for silver. If I dug something brown, I called it junk and …
