Hey all, it's been some time since I've posted....time with the family and hardly any chance to get out...Glad to be back!!! Now I will have to catch up on all the great post most of you have been posting!
I managed to get out yesterday for 4 hours and about 8 hours today, here is the finds for the combined last 2 days...
I was finally able to knock off a big bucket lister off!! with a Luckenbooth silver trade brooch and about 5 minutes later I hit an early 1900's pocket spill, my biggest silver spill to date(8 silver-posting a few samples found)...Didn't think my day could get any better today after pulling out a 1920 fifty cent piece but I was able to squeeze out this nice little early 1700's trade axe!....Other finds include a perfectly working Mag lite,musket balls, buttons, and old crusty copper...Bonus of the day was the deer antler found right in the french cellar hole!.... I am just stoked about the native trade brooch!! Thanks for looking....

Now that's a great one to cross off! It has been many years since I have been in a field and seen one of those come out, and will likely be many many more. (if ever)

Where do I start?! The brooch is definitely a BANNER find, it's incredible.

The silver coins are really good too, very rarely see George V big silver.

Big congrats on a world class day of digging!
