I got out this evening for an hour and a half to the orchard. Still very hot and the deer flies are out in force !
The very first find came when I was hiking up to the top pasture where I found the NJ copper. About half way up the road I got a nice signal that caught me off guard. Right there on top of the dirt, in a tractor tire impression was a cut Large Cent looking at me ! Braided Hair, no date. The field gave me the thimble, and the button that looks like a Buffalo Nickle.
I took a different road back around to the house where my truck was parked. Sticking to the edges I pulled up one more button. This one has some sort of short cross on it. It looks pewter under the gilt. Any info on this one is a help. The last item is the round, flat lead object. It looks like it may have some sort of design on one side, the other is completely smooth. There is a hole to wear it on a string What do you think it is ?
Thanks for looking, VPR
