Pocketwatch & spoons in snow..brrrrrr

A pal & board member here invited me to detecting with him in the woods this morning, little did we know we would be detecting in snow, not much about an inch. Anyways, we hunted for a couple hours and boy were my feet frozen.. I managed to find alot of trash, Shell casings, a couple neat spoons, the larger one is a serving spoon, marked NF Silver 1877, a Ingraham pocketwatch from 1907(worthless in this condition but still cool) and a nice padlock (guess mid 1800s) but gave it to the landowner who's property we were hunting on.. I should of brought my digital camera (ugh)Needless to say we didn't find a thing we were looking for but still a nice hunt

I think you did great! And in snow, to boot! Not pleasant, I know. Looks like some nice historical items. And thanks for giving back to the property owner. Good guy!

Braving the snow in the name of treasure is truly a noble deed.
I hope I have the same will when it hits down here.

Snow...

Nice assortment even though you are disappointed...

I think if you found metal with a metal detector... you found what you were looking for! Okay... maybe not what you were hoping for though... :P
