Got out on Saturday for the first hunt of the year, found the field I hit spanish silver in last fall was diggable and gave it a go. Decided to grid off a small area for a couple hours and got a 1815 John Alexr Barry Halifax token, musket balls, few buttons including the pewter nipple button, as well as a broken trade axe and a few other bits and bobs not pictured.
Was nice to finally get out after a long winter, and in tshirt weather at that!

I sure hope so, but just getting rid of all that snow is a win for me!
Great to see you getting a start to your season!

Hope this year is a banner year for you!

I think that is a good find, I've got the hosterman, but not the J.A. Barry type.
Best find was "thawed ground" Keep it up.
Spring season is going to be short this year.

Sure looks like we're going to bypass spring pretty quickly. At least I have a few beach and wooded sites to go once the crops are in and the the grass is too high!
