Extremely Rare Colonial Coin Found - One Man's Dream Comes True “Audie and I have been detecting together for over 15 years as good friends and best buddies. If I had a good day and he didn't, I would make sure he did. He's always done the same for me, and we've always shared artifacts. Earlier this year we were given permission to detect some new grounds and we spent a pretty good part of the day there with not much luck. We decided to leave and spend the last part of the day in a crop field that we've been searching for years. We've found some colonial artifacts and coins there in the past, and it was always worth another try. But that day, finds were few and far between. Just as we were ready to call it a day Audie got a nice signal on his Fisher Coin Strike. As he was digging I had walked up to him and asked him what he had. He said "it looks like another flat button." So he tossed it to me to check out as he covered his hole. I could see that it was a colonial coin but it was one that I haven't seen before. I tossed it back to him, he stuck it in his pocket, and we headed to the truck thinking it was just one of those days. On our way home I had mentioned to Audie that I would love to find a gold coin one day. His response was "I don't want to find a gold coin. I wish I could find one of those rare coins that you don't see everyday." We laughed it off and went on to other conversations..."

A Metal Detector Saves a Treasure Hunter From Becoming an Outback Statistic "Here's a lifesaving story - During my first trip to Australia, in 1983, I found myself out in the far reaches of North Queensland - in the out bush. And I mean "out bush" - not another soul for 50 miles at the very least. I was so far from help, driving an Isuzu 4x4 into grass over a foot deep when I began to have ignition problems." "I had to remove the points to keep my engine running and wouldn't you know it, I lost the little screw that held the things all together. It was a bummer of the worst kind, and both me and that screw were no where to be found by anyone. I rolled my little 4x4 back with some difficulty, got my new k-bar knife out and whipped the grass shorter in an effort to find the screw that would get me back to civilization. . ."

Treasure Leads of the Week Block Island , Rhode Island was first visited by explorer Verrazano in 1524 and again by the Dutchman Adriaen Block in 1614. It was considered a sacred island by the Indians and countless numbers of them were buried here.Settlers first came in 1661; remains of their homes are found at several locations on the island. During the Revolution a number of major naval actions occurred close by, which served as a refuge for criminals and deserters during this war. The ruins of the Mount Ophir Mint are located in the outskirts of Mariposa, Maripoosa Co,. It was built in 1850 by John L. Moffat, part-owner of a mine and assaying firm in San Francisco. Here in February 1851 he coined the first fifty-dollar hexagonal gold coins, which are extremely valuable in today's numismatic market. Several of his workmen are alleged to have buried large numbers of these coins on the premises. Click here for more stories and how to find out about treasures where you live.
