      Dirt Pirates thanks for watching! Yeah it is cool. Lots of trash. But every little piece of trash or relic is kinda cool. Makes you think how life was back then on that mountain 150 years ago. Good luck and happy hunting to you!! Kevin

      Thin Blue Diggers thanks for watching. The second trip there we do even better. No silver tho. But a crotal bell, Pa National Guard button from the Indian wars and a couple two cent pieces and more.
      And Casey didn’t do as well. Hahaha. It’s always fun to pick on Casey. 🤪👍🏻

    This episode reminds me of Stealth Diggers. Old cellar holes and all. Great job. Although being from Pennsylvania I’m dying to know where this town is located. I totally understand why you didn’t tell us.

    • @PotterCountyDiggers

      Wayne Hullihen Hi wayne! Thanks for watching. It reminds of them also. But these arent as old as they have up there. It’s really humbling to detect there. I would have never made it back in those days. They were tough ppl back then. Good luck and happy hunting to you. Kevin

    Cool spot I also like hunting in the woods. Shield nickel was a good find, still haven't found one myself. Love the group hunt, neat to have large area like that where there was a lot of activity. Merry Christmas to you and your family!

    • @PotterCountyDiggers
      @PotterCountyDiggers  4 роки тому

      William Mclinn Merry Christmas to you and yours also!! You’ll find one. Just keep digging those mid tones. 👍🏻.
      Come back in a week or so. We do another day there. Find a couple two cent pieces and a crotal bell. And some other cool relics! This next time aqualand relics comes up from MD and joins us.
      Thanks for watching and your time! Kevin.

      Thomasjoe Ashbaugh thanks for watching! I ice fish on Lyman. It’s a nice quiet lake to spend a day on.
      I hadn’t been down to Austin to detect yet. I want to sometime. But for now I’m just hanging around detecting areas I’m familiar with.
      Maybe this winter I’ll go to the historical society in Coudy and read up on Austin. And the areas downstream.
      Coal mining back in the day really took did some damage on out landscape in spots.

      Back in around 1982 I was fishing Lyman kept seeing fish run out of this hole in the bank on the lake being 16 and half being stupid I decided it could be a fish or a snake or turtle in that hole I stuck my hand down felt something take my pinky finger in and I pulled out a huge rock bass was female had to be about a pound full of eggs she was dinner with the trout I caught that day

      I don’t hunt down that way. But it’s old down there. I’d prob look for old farms or parks if allowed. Places where the dirt isn’t disturbed. Good luck and happy hunting!!! Kevin
