I am curious. In your post, picture # jpg. 257, you have an item you found, that I have also found. I do not know what is is. In your picture it is the second item from the bottom, in the middle. If yours is like mine the top. (or circular part) is mad of brass and the bottom (or threaded part), is different. If you know what it is please let me know. I have had this in my collection for a long time and never been able to identify it.

Thanks

You and your group had some great finds once again! Your very lucky to have such a friendship and the ability to such great detecting sites. I look forward to both you and your bothers finds during the summer. Happy hunting both of you.

Well today was the last day of the hunt and we ended at noon today because of rain, (and we were all tired from almost 50 hours of detecting in 6 days). Jim came through today with the find of the hunt which was a complete spur. Rick found a nice crotal bell and I found a great little purse with two Buffalo nickels in it, 1915 and 1916. We also found a carriage Rein Guide, a pocket watch, pocket knife, 8 buttons, 4 musket balls. Rick got a silver 1960 canadian dime, and Jim found a silver braclet. The three cartriges are 38-55, an old rifle shell. We also found the gold 1st Lt. bars to go with the silver 2nd Lt bars we found the other day. It was a great hunt and I will post a number of pictures here. Thanks everyone for your nice comments and interest. Our next Brothers hunt will be in August when Rick and I are going to England on Jimmy Sierra's trip. Thanks...Lance

Hey great finds....I was amazed to spot something I just dug up the other day.
Mine has 'PAT DEC16 1878 (6?)' on the back, do you know what this is??? Belt buckle??

thanks

Man oh man! You guys did great on this Brothers Hunt. 8) If you do 1/2 as well across the Pond, they may just either name a museum after you or knight you. ;) Congrats on another outstanding outing!!!
