Last detecting hunt for the year. More walking than hunting unfortunately. Did manage to find a few things amongst all the iron signals. The best being a autolite carbide miners cap light roughly from the 40's. 1 nitro club umc paper shell another umc rem shell. S&W 32 long unfired. Pad lock key hole! Carbide light was found about 20 yards to the right of the track switch!!
