  1. A few finds that are copper pieces, A nice point, a rolled trade bead and an unfinished copper piece that was copper nuggets that had been joined by pounding together but not yet  a finished tool......I actually found the point in my front yard while testing a new MD...Copper nuggets were found in the Chititu area and were traded by the local natives to other tribes for toolmaking.. A friend found a small fishhook that was very interesting..

  2. Great finds...I had a chance to get away from the Site where i was working at the time, this place was on the road to Ganes.. I parked my truck grabbed my gear and took about 20 steps, the drone was so loud the mosquitoes so thick, i ran back to the truck and drove back to the site. Just wasnt into losing some blood that day

  3. Hunting in the UK is a blast for sure, lots of  great history, got to hunt a little with a friend in Germany, that too was interesting. Think something too that is enjoyable the interesting folks you get to meet from all over that enjoy the hobby.. Too,  for me studying history has been very rewarding, remember this when you are looking for leads,  they are there for you to find....

  4. My mate called me Seeker, and i used that forum name for years, i think I unconsciously pulled away from that name because it reminded me of her, since i live in Alaska I just added that to the handle and it softened ..that part for me, shes been gone now for 10 yrs, but i remember her daily.  There are some on other forums that ive known for a long time some ive hunted with, they still call me seeker, its ok ....

     

  5. They are gone...

    Yes it was too bad, once Jack Gifford was out of the picture the business slowly crumbled. The last time i stopped there was after i found a rare one of a kind Celtic 1/4 Stater with a Tejon. The son was there and they could have cared less.. My Tesoros went away after that, too many other great units that were constantly improving...

  6. Lol Hi Jim, i still have my home in Ak will be there on the 30th, when i get my business done will be going to Tn.. Just havent spent much time at either place the last few years, would be good to see you again...Coffee right now, halfway around the world
