Here’s the only 3 #quartz #crystals I’ve found. The left two came from the here in wake county and are more purple and amethyst-y? while the clear one came up while #goldpanning in #uwharrie national forest. I made a video of that adventure on my YouTube channel. #minerals #rockhounding

Once you start digging stuff out of the ground the flat surfaces in your house tend to get covered in things. #metaldetecting #bottledigging #treasurehunting #mudlarking #bottles #history #crystals #arrowheads

Here’s a pretty great find I dug a couple of years ago. It’s a Union Soldier’s breast buckle (some say chest plate) from the American #civilwar, but it’s one of my favorites. #metaldetecting #relichunting #treasurehunting #history #northcarolina

A couple of weeks ago I found my first piece of #gold while out #metaldetecting in a creek in #raleigh. It’s a 10k tie pin I believe. The makers mark on the back is a heart but I haven’t been able to ID it yet. No, it doesn’t say dick lol. #treasurehunting #creekwalking

This is the 1723 Woods Hibernia I found on vacation in New England. Currently the oldest coin I’ve found. Check out the video from the trip below. #metaldetecting #relichunting #coincollecting

This is one of my favorite ever finds. It’s a William Henry Harrison Tippecanoe Log Cabin button from his 1840 campaign. Cleaned up great! #relichunting #civilwar #metaldetecting #treasurehunting #history #1800s
