Slipping in an hour or 2

I rush out after work every day to try for the last hour of day light. I got lucky today and got off work just a little early . I got a couple of nice buttons and one old coin but it is almost slick. I have it soaking. One of the buttons is a French one in poor shape but it is not like one that I already have! I thought it was just a regular republic button but when I got it home I saw cannons on the bottom of it!! I am thrilled with it even though it is in poor shape. I also dug a prussian button from the late 1800s that is in real nice shap and will display real nice. You gotta love this hobby. The only Other real good find I had was half of a really old belt buckle. I got pics coming up shortly. Computer problems. ???

Great finds. Love them finds you guys are having over there. Still kicking myself a little for not picking up detecting as a hobby while I was over there.

Yeah the days really suck over there. I hated 8 - 9 am sunrise and 3 -4 pm sunset.

I was never home on weekdays during the daylight it seemed.
