no tease here--the landowner gave us the go at an early 1800's huge homestead and we (FMERG is the other digger) spent some time chatting about his vast Native American collection and then he whips out the porn---FEAST ON HIS CHILDHOOD SURFACE FIND IMG_3242.JPG IMG_3243.JPG War of 1812 button. now to the digs---an '04 IH, double convex button, a solid brass doorknob at 2 3/4" X 1" weighs 4.9 ounces. the curved brass item is a "no eye deer" item, I found the same piece at the area farm where we spent 10 weeks diggin'.

I am humbled to have seen and held that amazing button:icon_thumleft::icon_thumright:

So this is the property I used to stand on waiting for the school bus to pick me up every morning? I thought that place would be LOADED with silver!!!

no BEEZ, this is near the the field you and Smittyman dug with Frank. the Colonial dig starts today. a few relics from Sunday. a keyhole cover, large brass Dandy, Presto mason lid--1st dig of this design, brass compact part--3rd of this type I've dug. the never ending iron hits are killing the coin hits so rain may help when soil gets moist IMG_3244.JPG IMG_3245.JPG IMG_3246.JPG IMG_3247.JPG IMG_3248.JPG IMG_3249.JPG IMG_3250.JPG

Like the eagle on that button. By no coincidence that the same eagle is on all the silver coins from the time period.
