Detectors valuable tool in search for metal
Sunday, January 14, 2007

. . . Metal detecting has been common for many years, but not as popular as it is now. It has become not just a means for seeking valuables, but a hobby, recreation for all ages.

. . . They have found tokens, too, of several varieties and clacker that bears the name of the company that issued it. Clacker was a currency long ago distributed by businesses to their employees for use at the company store, or commissary. The metal coins were of various denominations.

. . . Searching areas that would have been good campsites, and at spots along railroads and highways where pickets might have been posted, Doug Patterson and his son look for Civil War relics, and with some success. They have found bullets and buttons that once closed the coats of Union and Confederate soldiers. Patterson uses available literature to identify and date the items. He is surprised at the number of unfired bullets he's found. He searches only where he has permission from the property owner. . . .
