I have been fascinated with the past all my life. Although time travel is not possible (at least, as far as I know), we can still experience it through what I call "relics of the fourth dimension." Namely, as the old saying goes, "time marches on." We can't travel in the fourth dimension, except going forward in the present, but we can follow the trail of the fourth dimension. Along the way, people lose or discard items from their being. These relics are unintentional time capsules that give us as glimpse into their lives. Here on The Time Searchers blog, I will show some relics of the past that I have run across in our present. Sometimes when I am out on a relic hunt with the Colonial Relic Hunter, we know that we are not alone. There is more than just relics at these historical sites. Indeed, it could be said that there is a portal to the past, perhaps to another dimension, where that which once was, still is. A place where the real consorts with the shadows; the present fuses with the past, on Time Searchers: Ghost Relics.

Lost Colonial Village Find: Medieval Coin

The Colonial Relic Hunter and I were able to do another expedition to the Lost Colonial Village right before Thanksgiving.  We made some exciting finds on this trip.  I was fortunate in finding this medieval coin that dates from the 1100's to 1485.  This is the oldest coin that I have found with a metal detector.  A little known fact is that the American Colonists traded with any coin of value, including medieval ones that were still in circulation in the 1700's.

Photos and video of our finds will be posted soon!
