August is being very kind! Its been three months since the last colonial honey hole, and that one didnt have much but it did have a half cent and an incredible neck stock buckle. Went on a recon mission yesterday to scout three possible sites. the first ended up being a true honey hole! The second was a gorgeous colonial cellar, and barn, but it was hammered hard, and the third was just a really big boulder...The honey hole was only a thousand feet or less from the hammered colonial site... I didnt spend a lot of time yesterday but did dig a few buttons, and a shield nickel. One of the buttons was a very old pewter that definitely something on it at one time.... I only used reactivity 0 so i knew there had to be a lot more there, just needed to start separating. Got the key hole escutcheon, and KG3 right off , then mostly buttons. I was getting ready to leave when the shoe buckle frame came up and then the Massachusetts state copper! I have dreamed of digging one of these for a very long time...
