Clueless of such details but, it ranks way up there on the COOL factor scale! Is it broken in two pieces? Too bad if it is but still cool regardless.
Nice early gun part, I have yet to find anything other than a cap gun. Congrats!
Hey Coinman, I don't seem to find gun related parts much at all, especially this old. Looks like you do pretty well otherwise!
Thanks Brian
Thanks! I guess we live too far up north, the civil war seems like it had the most weapon drops. No battles really in NH, a good amount Revolutionary War activity in Mass though. I just have to hope that some hunter dropped part of his gun in the 1700's. This year was my worst year since 2013, all my sites dried up, luckily I finally found a good site with the LIDAR (after finding 7 buttons and no coins the whole year). I have four or five other cellar holes I found with the LIDAR, abandoned sometime before 1850, that I haven't check out yet.
This year has been odd! I haven't found one largie, but found four Conn. coppers. and Georgies. My Deus seems to really like those Conn. coppers. I have been detecting for 5 years now and still have not
found a Spanish reale. I have done well otherwise, but this year has been tough.
