I had a chance to go back to the large farm with the old saw mill site yesterday. My buddy RTDE3 went with me and 2 other guys.
I had a good day the last time we hunted this land & I was really looking forward to going back. We walked around for the first part of the morning looking for the 2ND home site. We did find it after a few hours and started hunting right away. There was all kind of trash scattered around the yard & most of it was iron or tin. You had to work hard to find good signals in the middle of all that iron. But I had my F 75 tuned in right. I failed to find another cache like I did last trip but I still had a pretty good day.
My best find was a 1875 seated dime. I also found 3 pennies, half a locket, a square ring top with a fancy design, a star token, some flat buttons, a pretty salt shaker, 2 bottles and a small brass plug that says "Sampson Brass plugs. Pat date April 19 1898". I have no idea what this plug could be used for. And help out there?
I can't wait to go back to this place & find the 3rd home site the owner told us about!
