Hey everyone, Thought Id share a few photos off my phone. Yeah I know they suck but they get it done I think. I usually take more time but had these on the desk top and figured Id share the past few weeks.

Ive been hunting a old site and came across a decent old home site back in the woods off a nice old creek. It started with a braided hair LC on a old path leading to the house. I was out of time that day but told my partner I found a nice 1850 or later home site. Well I returned and hit a hot spot it was small but loaded with +85 left and right.

Unfortunately the site dried up on me really quick. After about 5 hrs I had the place almost clean. I thought maybe it was hunted but I think it was just a small site but had some really nice silverware including a 1870 tiffany and co sterling spoon. Found two there at the same site. They are hard to find.

In almost 20 yrs these are only like number 5 and 6 maybe. You had to have some money to have some stuff like this. I love the sterling buckle. Looks victorian. Also got a first in almost 20 yrs of hunting a love token charm. It is so thin and delicate but another great find. I was hoping maybe more are there.

I am shooting for 200 silvers this yr to try and keep trac with all the minelab hunters in my neck of the woods lol. But we'll see. I got 16 to start.

Thanks for looking

Jeremy

holy smokes, all that great stuff came from one site? wow!
 

Great finds, WTG!!!
 

Thanks everyone, Yeah I went out both days steve when we had the few nice days. Pulled some more decent finds from up there. I will post here soon. When I have enough to be worth viewing Ill share.

Foundations are tough to find. I have been standing right ontop of sites and thought I was there or close. Turn the unit on and signals everywhere. Alot of the times here in the NE they build them inbetween large pine trees. There are other signs. Having old maps to look at really helps alot. You can get a really good idea of where they are before you go out and start looking for them.
