This afternoon I was able to do some hunting at a colonial homestead that was replaced by a "modern" 1860s home.... :)

For the first hunt at the site, I didn't find huge quantities but did come home with one fatty IH and a newer eagle button, a half of a pewter flat button and some "what is its". And I dug more junk in two hours today than I did hunting all day earlier in the week with the GPX.... :-[ ::)

Hopefully the next time the hotspot can be found. :)

Thanks for looking!
