Went back to the Dam / Mill coastal stream that I hunted last weekend ! I think my most interesting find today was the copper nuggets ! They were spread out on the stream bank below the high tide mark ! There was not a single concentration of the copper nuggets they were spread out individually in about a 40 foot radius ! Individual targets being on average 6 feet apart ! They ring like a big copper though so you have to dig them ! I am curious if the copper nuggets are in a naturally accuring state or are pieces of slag copper from a smelting operation What do you think My usual 1 coin a day find today was an Edward the VII 1905 Canadian copper ! and a few other pieces of junk I fell in love with in the field !! The Ladies sash/ fashion buckle piece I found today matched up with the piece I found on this site last year ! Nature was not as kind to this piece of the buckle as the piece I found last year but it was nice to find it !! I also found the lead tag and some other Maine junk / relics makes no difference to me I love everything I dig !! OH I forgot to mention that all the keys were in one hole with the remnants of the chain that held them together !! Someone had a bad day when they lost them !! MaineRelic
