More impressive in my title than in my post but it's just part of the job. :santasmile: I haven't been here much the last while but Ironhorse and I are back out there and in it to win it. :headbang: I expected 2020 to be challenging with many of our best sites and areas really starting to get beat, and finding new worthy fields to walk decrease by the year, but I sure didn't expect for door knocking to be taken out of the picture. So far all added up we really can't complain, but my posts this year will probably be like this one being the best of multiple hunts and that way the really thin days can still get posted if I happen to have got an interesting trinket.

The Loyalist King's American Regiment button didn't clean up very well but always great seeing one in the dirt! Couple Early French lead seals and buckles (1720s-1750s) from yesterday made it worth it, and an old silver ring dug last week.

Iron Patch,

Another great hunt, you found some really nice buckles, especially the mini buckle. I also like the Loyalist button, another awesome find. Good luck with your hunts. Walt

I like the buckles! You were fortunate to get a couple of really nice frames at those french sites....they were thin.
We should do the acadian sites again and get the skinny on what's left!

A loyalist Rev War button is a auspicious sign for 2020.
I’m sure there will be some great finds/posts coming from you.
