Fun in the rain

[Gene Mean]

I went back to one of the city parks after a permission rejection. This park is an old farm going back to 1700's. The rain was supposed to end early but once I hit the field it started up again. Wasn't bad though so I had a pretty good 2 hour hunt. I came away with a good variety, you can see the transition from old site to modern outdoor playground. The round ball is .69 inches and 30 grams so I believe a British ball. The detail on the small button really came out with a lemon juice rinse. The backmarks are pretty shot.
Thanks for taking a look

Nice Dandy button. I've dug a lot of .69 caliber British Brown Bess balls from French and Indian War sites in Pennsylvania. The ones that were mass produced in Britain are completely smooth with no mold seam or sprue mark.

Thank you Steve. The balls I dig around here are from the Battle of Monmouth. Made on site I would say.
