Well, if this is how this year's gonna be...

I "THINK" I'm going to enjoy it! I figured to set a pattern for the year but was hoping, at the same time, that it wouldn't turn out to be a downer. I'll let you judge.

I'm guessing this is a modern button? Non-magnetic and two piece.

Now, follow me on these next two.

I found this watch and notice that it's stopped at the EXACT moment in time that Custer's 7th calvary lost it's battle.

Then, I found this.

IMGA2484.JPG

So, that could make this a piece of the trumpeter's horn from the battle of Custer's last stand!!!!! ;)
Whatcha think!!!

Anyway, you see from the finds that my 2013 has started off JUST fine!

Then, for icing, I got this hit that rang in at 94-96 !!!! The only time that happens for me is when it's a large piece of solid metal.
I dug anyway and it turned out to be the first ring of 2013.

Don't know if you can tell from the pic but this is a very solid chunk. Weighed in at 7.6 grams.

Yep, I'm thinking it just might be a good, "Happy", New Year! :)

Thanks for peeking!

HH!

And you call yourself a treasure hunter! Sheesh! That's the first thing I learned in Metal Detecting 101 whilst I was going for my Detectorate in Digemupstry!!

Looks like you are off to a good start & ahead of me!

A good start, of course, ahead of you? No. Just a bit sooner maybe. I'm in no contest. :)

Thanks for the response!

That's a great start to a new year congrats

Thank you kind sir. Hope your season starts soon. (don't forget, you can still hunt parking lots. Especially if they have snow on them. People lose stuff there too, just gets hidden in snow and usually stays there until thaw. :) )
