Chain of events lands a 1700's site, bling, bells, and wheat!
Oldjerseygirl and I went to that old town Iv'e been hunting. We decided that neither one of us felt like looking for the 1600's house under that eagle that I had seen yesterday (although we did have a run in with a snake) . We had looked at the maps again and figured it was allot further, so we went to where it showed another old house long gone on the edge of a soybean field that Becky remembered a base ball field in it too. So I knock on the farmers door, the brother pulls up and said, " yeah take those Geiger counters over there and have fun" So we go over and started "Geiger counting" when I look up and see an old woman bum rushing me. Ha, thought she was going to interrogate me when she started smiling. She starts out with, " a few years back I lost my gold earring......" Few minutes later we were relocated in this very nice Quaker couples yard looking for her earring. Hour and a half later, no luck. He asked the neighbor if we could metal detect there and the guy said yes, at a later date. I gave the owners my contact info, showed them what I found, be back there later.
I found a 1920 and 1939 wheaties, a bling thing, and it must of been bell day?
Enjoy the pix.
