A friend took me to one of his spots for a hunt on Wednesday.
In the photo of the finds are, left to right, top to bottom:
Top Row
1. A key, I think, possibly a watch key.
2. Broken gun flint, pistol size.
3. Unfired bullet.
4. Fired and flattened bullet.
2nd Row
5. Brass piece, handle of spoon or something else.
6. Back half of a brass padlock. I think that is what it is, it has some steel springs still inside, the springs are V type springs and very old.
7. Brass thimble, can't tell if it was plated or not.
3rd Row
8. Piece of pewter.
9. Flat button with no back mark. Still has some gold plating clinging to front.
4th Row
My prize. A 1787 Auctori: Connec: One Cent Copper
All in all a very satisfying day on the hunt.
My friend also found a large copper but it has not been identified yet. We are working on that.
