I haven’t been on here in forever. Found a rev war cannonball today while out with my hunting partner Charlie (Eastcoasthunter). Had a chirp about 16” down, and there she was…last touched 1781. It’s a 6.2 pound British variety. Me and my group The Bastards of Bramble have dug about 6 altogether. Also found a few musket balls, and what looks like a lead shot cut from a bar

My bud took a video, so maybe I’ll try and post that later. I struggle with Tnet on my mobile device ever since they shut down the app.

Happy hunts

Hey Pepp…Funny thing is I’d just gotten there and joined two friends who’d been there for hours 🤣 They were happy for me but also hated my guts for a couple minutes

Oh yah, it’s spherical from the rust conglomerate. I’ll post a better pic, maybe, if I get around to it lol
