First off got a few pics from last weekend at the park. 10k watch.JPGlocks clean.JPG really happy with the watch. Its a bulova 10k rgp self winding one. Seems to have been a fancy one too and a first for me. The locks were also found in the woods near the park too. I seem to be getting a lot of these from that area, lol.

Ok now on to yesterdays hunt. Went way back in the mountains looking for an old log foundation near where my wife and I have been digging, but as is usually the case, were unable to find it. So we preceded to mosey about the hillsides checking along stone walls and other likely spots just trying to find a decent area to concentrate on. She brought my attention to an area I had previously checked without her, but had given up on due to all the canning jar lids and hunks of iron stove parts. I told her to go ahead and I stuck working the stone fences with nothing to show but a pocket watch lid. That slowly got old, so I went ahead and joined her at her section and slowly picked through it expecting little to show for it. Turns out her instincts were better than mine that day. After getting a feel for the area and digging lots of stove parts a few nice axe heads and double bit axes started showing up for me. Then she yells for me to come over and see what she found. Mildly bored I ask if its a coin, she says no but its interesting something kinda like a peace sign. so I walk over and she pops a nice clasp pin with a nice thistle? design on it. That really got me interested so we preceded to get a bit more serious about the area. Found a lot of neat relics there, but my favorite was actually the last signal I dug there before we left. As soon as it popped into the light, lets just say my language turned a bit vulgar and uncouth, lol, but it was something I never expected to find there and something I'd been hoping on finding someday. A really nice condition Williams cleaner bullet. Hoorah!! clasp and mini.JPGback clasp.JPGbutter knife.JPGodds collects.JPGnaval button.JPGodd silver.JPG

Thanks for looking, and any info on the clasp pin would be appreciated. HH.
