Was out with a friend and used his AT Pro for the first time and this is what we found! Pretty good for an hour in. Beginner's luck I guess. Conestoga Bell?

Yeah I did some reading on it. Very interesting history. I'm assuming these bells are from the 1800's? Either way a good find and a keeper.

Good find, I don't have near as many of that type as I do crotals, the bigger they the more often they are broke.

Pretty hard to date them, it's obvious it's been in the ground awhile, but they still make em like that today.
