The NEW site

[umrgolf]

Two days ago I went out scouting in some fields adjacent to a couple old homesites we found earlier this spring. BINGO, a couple hundred yards back.... pottery,,, brick,,, glass

We decided to give it a go yesterday and Josh ended up with a couple killer finds and I'm happy that he found them. He was digging in a little area that had a pocket of trash and it paid off huge for him. Way to go man His post should be up soon, but one of the top 3 finds of our group this year

I'll start out with a couple really toasty coppers... the fields out this way are very harsh

Here's an 1809 Classic Head Half Cent (a real shame to see them come out this way)




A counter-stamped King George II "WM"


Here's a few military buttons from a short hunt on Monday
-1830's 2pc Eagle A
-1820's US Greatcoat Army
-1812 Artillery


Unknown Brass items (left appears to be some kind of horse rig, right appears to be a gun piece)


An Oval-shaped Dandy Button




A couple group shots

The unidentified piece to the right in the photo is one half of a folding spur. I dug a whole one and it's side pieces looks just like that.

Nice relics!

Nice digs Jeff, me likes the buttons. I'm still waiting for some rain here, can't even get a shovel in the ground here right now. I've never seen it this bad. I have a dozen or so sites lined up and can't dig any of them.
