Super week!! First silver of the year is Capped!!! First NA artifact for the year is Slate!!!

[fishstick]

Howdy all, just got permission to some new sites and had the opportunity this week to scan a few of them and it payed off. 1st site is in corn stubble which I normally don't hunt but it's extremely wet out and it's the only place I wouldn't sink to my knees in. I was surprised how clean the site is ( hardly any trash, iron) 10 buttons, one being a eagle I and 6 coins!! Can't wait to get back there when I can actually swing over lol .

Dates are
1860&1861 indians
1845&18?? Large cents
1868 lll center
1832 Capped bust dime


Few days later I stopped by the 2nd site which is bean stubble and looked perfect but I didn't get to swing much because I was sinking bad but it payed off what lil time I was there. This site still has barns and grain bins there so lots more trash but still came out with some goodies. Many won't know what the slate piece is but I'm over the moon!!! It's a broken notched bannerstone that has a repair hole drilled in it which is a first for me!!!!!!!

Coins are
1871 or 74 Indian
1917,1945,19?? Wheaties

Didn't realize I found a small lapel pin ( just a ball of mud) has a neat design on it!

Happy Hunting y'all

You did , there's more. You think it's a virgin site?

I'd say so. This is just a small ol" homesite that sits across the road from a buddy of mine. His family has owned it forever and they didn't"t have a clue it was there. We"re talking maybe 100"x100" site.

 

[Oldrvrrat57]

Awesome hunt that's for sure, my kinda stuff!!!!

 

[fishstick]

Thx for the replies everyone, DEF hoping to find more the next hunt

 

[Limitool]

Good job. Best of luck guy. I envy ya and you'll have a blast...!

 

[Blak bart]

Holy 🐄...what a fantastic hunt !! Congrats fishstick !!🫡

 

[pepperj]

Sweet old silver!
Great hunt you had at the site already in the very wet conditions.
With getting that many buttons, coppers is a good sign.👌
Best of luck on the return 👍

 

[Silvermonkey]

Great hunt Fishstick! Capped bust coins rarely ever come along ( at least for me), so celebrate that awesome find!
