Hit a site hard that I had hunted a few years ago. The rain had stopped just as we arrived. I brought a fairly new hunter with me, Tombac. He does not post but came away with, three buttons, two pocket knives, a very neat little ax head. He also was very happy with his first 1/2 reale, great job. I was very surprised to pull the two gold rings up one after the other in two very different locales. The two tone mens diamond ring has two spades and a diamond cut into the inside band and weighs 8.8 grams. The womans rose gold band was broken but still a looker. A holed 1746 1/2 Reale and a 1844 seated half dime. 1845 large cent, a fried copper, and another copper with the bust of a woman visible. Another watch winder. There must have been a huge sale in this area of watch winders. A neat little shield pin. Buttons consisted of a early navy, some fancies and a WJ&S two piece. Another great day of hunting.

Thanks Steve, the site is amazing. Heres a pic of the back. It does look like a strap finale or possibly a pin.

Wow what an array of goodies you found. My God Man! No wonder you can't sleep the night before a hunt. Next time I head out I am going to think what I would really like to find and maybe I will find it. But I am not going to tell you what that is:) Can't wait till Sunday! It's gonna be brisk and cold too! Fantastic finds Arty. Keep em coming!
 

Great finds !
 

Incredible back-to-back hunts Artie! Super cool rings and another Spanish silver. I can't wait for your next hunt.
 

Great assortment of finds Arty. I especially like the 1/2 reale, of course. Nice going on squeezing a few more goodies out of a beaten site.
 

Man I guess we didnt hit that field that hard when we went a while back! I see your finds are increasing with that new white coil of yours. Watch out because my shiny new one came on friday and its hungry! Awesome spanish . See you sunday.
 

Great finds and some nice history there.
