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.

1723 BRITISH COLONIAL COPPER COIN METAL DETECTING RELIC FIND-LOST COLONIAL VILLAGE


 
     HERE'S A COUPLE OF PHOTOS OF A 1723 BRITISH COLONIAL COPPER COIN THAT
I FOUND AT THE LOST COLONIAL VILLAGE.  ITS INTERESTING TO ME THAT THIS COIN STILL HAS SOME DETAIL TO IT.  IT PREDATES BRADDOCK'S DEFEAT IN 1755 AND IT IS MY FAVORITE FIND THAT I MADE AT THE LOST COLONIAL VILLAGE.  MOST COINS WE FIND HERE IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA DON'T HAVE MUCH DETAIL SINCE THE COINS HAD CIRCULATED FOR YEARS BEFORE THEY ENDED UP OUT HERE.  MOST ONES YOU SEE FOUND ARE WHAT WE CALL "SMOOTHIES".  MEANING THAT IT IS IT IS WORN SMOOTH WITH NO DETAILS LEFT. -THE TIME SEARCHER
