I went off to celebrate my BD on Tuesday.
From the weather reports I better get digging so I left on Saturday.
First site gave up an LC and a couple of IHPs.
I slipped down the road and the fields had been tiled. The new pasture the tile and disking went right over the site.
Broken bell, complete bell, a pendant of a classic looking feller.
I went looking for a couple of other sites on the 2 different permissions, but couldn't find them. Rough plowed, and a huge expense of land for the other.
I moved out of the room as it seemed that the inn keeper loved Fabreeze.
I drove up looking to get another permission and received a 3000 acre plot.
I had my eyes on a English Church site, an estate site beside it.
It proved to be pretty good considering it was corn stalks.
I dug a dozen coppers, 2 silvers, 5 crotal bells, relics, basically 2.5 days on the site.
On the afternoon of the 2nd day I drove around to the other end of the fields. Got permission on from another land owner. He has a couple of thousand acres as well. No problem as long as the crops aren't in, your welcome to dig.
I hit the one site, muddy, newer trash, I went to the older site in the corner 300 ft away.
2 silvers and that was really it for good keepers.
Now digging a quarter in a 1800s site gets the blood a pumping.
Then seeing that Caribou figure-pops the hopes of seeing a oldie.
Silver is silver, and those high 94s sound really great.
So here's the scoop.
The misc.bin of targets that will find appropriate bucket. (Might sort once over to make sure)
Some misc.buttons
1 real ugly lead button or whizzer?
(So ugly it's earned the photo grab)
Watch winder,
Gold wash cufflink
5 perfect crotal bells
1 lovely Tomback bell
1 broken crotal
One hand forged spike
The solid porcelain body.(Bellhop)
Cane bands and ends.
The silver washed rosette looked great in the dirt also.
The 3 ring items were total dirt teasers
Possible scissor or candle holder the one.
The silver one had the blood going for a tad.
Awesome pewter spoon handles. Would love a whole one.
A few thimbles, even a open top variety.
2 religious looking medallions gold washed back. Found at the Church Of England site.
The diamond shape hole item is from a knife I believe (name escapes me)
Had to give a photo of the 57 Snider.
I'm thinking it would provide a kick.
Digging this pendant up was a blast.
I'm not sure if this is a rosette of sorts.
Partially filled with the lead looking pewter filler.
2 Quarters
1943
1955
2 Fishscales
1870
1914
Some of the nicer buttons dug.
Interesting information on the small one.

Basically yesterday was a checkout, detect, rain, detect, big rain, repeat. Got in just 3 hours of detecting.
Great trip secured lots of land, with a reference for another 1500 acres.
There's a school house, and few others sites in winter wheat. So good times later in the year.
Might try a 1 day between till and planting to the Church site.
Thanks for looking.
