Got out for a full day on a new site. First target of the day was the Not One Cent hard times token which is a rarity north of the border. Target friendly area and ended with a bunch of crusty coppers, handful of musket balls and a smattering of buttons. Lots of gold gilt left on the backs!

Find of the day was the Light Horse militia button from the 1790-1820 era. I actually found three of them but his is the only one that is legible. My hunting partner also found one but his is near immaculate. Fun day out!
