  1. I have socks in my dresser older than you, my friend. It's coming sooner.
  2. Both of my old digging buddies found one. Still have hope-based on the sites I hunt.
  3. I think just a couple shown are collected. This is my 2000 to present digs. My most beautiful dug coin from sandy soil I will take a photo of. My 1980 to 2000 digs either paid for my Wifes Nursing Degree or were traded for detectors or given to family and friends. It was pretty impressive, so I have been told.
  4. I was 36 and I to bought many fishing rods and every new detector model that came out. The relics and coins are still out there to be found if you travel those old back roads. Good luck.
  5. Day Dreaming It was 1987 and I'm working the many clearing sites in Centreville Virginia. These were some of the many confederate buttons I found there.
  6. I found my reference book. It's titled The French Army in America During the American Revolution. All fought at Yorktown. The regiments are as follows: 7,13,16,17,18,26,34,41,64,68,70,74,84,85,89,104 and Navy. The 64th Suisse were Volunteers with Count Rochambeau. They were of Swiss National origin. They were in the Artillery. More to follow.
  7. I dug the French Navy and the 64th near Williamsburg on private land. I collected the others. based on a book I have that discusses French Regiments in Virginia with backmark photos. I know the French passed by my house in 1788 after the Rev. War. during the Campaign of 1788. Thanks.
