I like what I'm finding in cornfields now that I've learned a bit about how to hunt them. But, in all honesty, I really don't think I'm cut out for them. Maybe it's because I'm too old. They seem to be a younger person's game. They just seem way too much like, "going to work", instead of going for a walk with my detector. ;) Might help if the ground wasn't frozen. LOL

Anyway, I got out for a bit today because I just couldn't sit any longer. I figured the uneven ground might give at least some that wasn't frozen solid. That part worked but man!!! I am pooped! Just from walking! (stumbling).

No coins but I managed a few interesting finds.

Feel free to comment.

I intended to just walk around and take a closer look at the spot where I found broken glass today.

The last one was rather a convenient set up. It came with it's own shot glass?
It still had the cork in it. :)

Whenever I find one of these inserts I always hope there will be a mason jar full underneath it. :)

Cuff link? I haven't done much to clean it yet. It kind of looks like there might be a letter there, I'll work on it.

This one is interesting too. Can't make anything out on it but it appears to be pretty old.

And, lastly, I found what's left of a pocket watch. There is probably enough information on it to make a pretty good identification. But, I'm to pooped to try.

I haven't tested yet, but I suspect it's silver because it came out of the ground shiny like that.

The inner plate has a wealth of info on it but I just can't seem to get good pics.
Maybe some better eyes can tell us some about the maker etc.

If anyone wants a better pic of a certain spot, let me know and I'll try.

Thanks for stopping by!
