I met up with fellow T-netter, Jimzz to hunt the 1850's fort site that we started hunting around the first of the year and he and I were able to score a few keepers. I started the morning using the CTX, but within 30 minutes, headed to the car to put her away. There's a time and place for the 3030, but, this place isn't it. Wandered around for a little while trying to get in tune, but, we decided to hunt an area we haven't put much pressure on. Jimmy scored first with his Martingale rosette, so it was on I stayed in that one area for about 7 hours and dug an unusual amount of epaulette debris today. I managed to score my first R button along with Dragoon and a plain Eagle cuff. As you can see, it was like catching fish in a barrel, targets were plentiful, so, we'll be back to give this spot a good working over. Towards the end of the day I dug a toasted copper coin that was banging 28-30, which after a little cleaning at home, it looks to be a mid 1800's Mexican 1/4 reale. This makes the fourth one to come out of here so far.
