Cowboy Buckle and lots of Silver & IH's
Well I never expected to find a Cowboy buckle. Try as I might, I really wanted a CW plate, but I'll take this old
cowboy buckle any day. My partner and I got out Fri, Sat. and Monday and found some pretty good finds. We thought Saturday
was going to be a bust, hunted 3 sites, one of which we had to ford a stream to get to it, only to find it in corn stubble, really hard to hunt, will hit it in the fall. The forth site we hit Saturday, was the BEST!! We hunted this site at least 4 times this last winter and never found anything. Must have been the weather Saturday, hot and dry here in Ohio. I started off finding a couple of wheat penny's, while I was doing that Gary popped out a Barber quarter. I then found a couple more wheat's and then got a beer can signal, that just didn't sound right. I dug down and found a Cowboy Buckle. What a hobby, you just never know what you are going to find. Got out today, found a few wheat's and then on the way back to the car, got a signal and really thought it was a nickel on my F-75, but it turned out to be a nice silver ring. Don't think it is real silver, but nice find any ways.
