'25 Standing Liberty, Flattened Roundball and other oddities
Decided to stay local today, so I set off on a three pronged attack on three locations, in which two are of historical significance.
Spot 1:
Hit the start of the outgoing tide on "Tragedy" beach, and as always...it produces.
Spot 2:
Second location is within 50 yards of a Revolutionary War battle location (Legal) in which 1,200 of the best soldiers in the continental army, led by Anthony Wayne and Lt. Col. F. deFluery pulled a night time raid on a fortified position defended by 625 hardened regulars..
Spot 3:
Just a quick hit for battery money at a local schoolyard..
Total finds..
Now the oddities...
Looks like a button (somewhat) its copper I know that..found at the battle location.
To me it looks like a fishing weight, however, its completely flat...it doesn't look like a sinker that I have every seen..also at the battle location.
This one has me scratching my head, initially when it popped out of the sand, I thought it was some sort of copper coin, did a light rubbing and silver started showing through, however there is no design on it..same location as above.
Lastly, the lowly flattened round ball..
