WINNER #1
My U.S. favorite find for April 2020 is the Historical Personal Decorative Item, found by Curtis H. from Ohio with his AT Pro.
Curtis’s story: I haven’t been able to metal detect in a couple of years but with the social distancing going on for the Coronavirus I finally had some time and had definitely put in the hours of research. I fired up my AT Pro and headed out to a field. It was 58 degrees and it felt great compared to the recent weather here in Ohio.
The field site that I had chosen was occupied on an 1853 map but was gone by the 1872 map so I had high hopes for the location, but never could have imagined that I would dig something like this! I have showed it to several people and all have come to the consensus that it is either early settler or a Native American personal decorative item. It is by far the most significant item I have ever found! It was the best day ever until I realized that I had left my Pro-Pointer in the field and it was gone when I went back the next day.
Curtis H. WINS an ACE 300 metal detector!!!
