Returned to Stagestop Site

[Davetect]

With high hopes Vicky and I returned to the possible site of an old stagestop we found last summer. Mainly hoping that the recent hard freezes killed off the chiggers . This site has been very difficult to work. Finally, found my first coin. A 1925 Buff it is the one at the bottom. A couple of days before I was hunting another difficult site and the only coin I retrieved was the other no date buff. Vicky found a couple of square nails and what I belive is a knapsack hook . I will try to get some pics of that later. The other stuff. A Musketball a bullet type unknown and some sort of ring and attachment. Hope to return soon. Was using the DFX with hotfoot set at 15khz single freq. Modified trsh program.

First time I only found one coin on back to back hunts and they are both buffs.

If your finding Nichole's you have your detector set just perfect. The other coins will come sooner or later be patient.
Congrats on the buffs. Burdie

The ring and attachment looks like a part of a broken snaffle bit.

A head stall would be attached to a ring on either side of the bit.

Typically used on most work horses used for plowing or pulling wagons, and sometimes used for riding rigs.
