Failed Crop Area - Day 1....

[CRUSADER]

Conditions were perfect - flat, dry on top & wet underneath.

I couldn't believe my luck when on the 3 run I picked off the top a:

Hey! That is one of those trunk plates with the integrally cast hooks and decorative device that Iron Patch threatened me with a legal injunction over!

He really was right!

They can do what they want, I'm all about detecting the next two weeks!

Damn those rascally rabbits!

I found one of those same buttons but couldn't ID it!!!!!!!

In pic. 2, at the bottom right, the anchor button. I found one last year and I could never Identify it or guess its age. Do you know anything about it at all?

Lucky.

Rabbits eating everything? Are you sure you're not hunting Down Under, Mate?


Seriously though... I like the horse blinker a great deal...


But the twisted silver ring is my favorite.






Best Wishes,

It did cross my mind. Although I haven't seen them made of such thin wire, so I thought it was a later homemade piece

Great digs once again, thanks to the wabbits. Just amazing the area clean up. The twisted wire is interesting.
