So my brother's inlaws home was built in 1794 and I hunted the yard about a year ago and found nothing. Some one had cleaned it out.Not even any clad .
I hit the yard again yesterday and and found a baggage tag and nothing else but large iron. I headed to the back field and there was nothing for most of the way out.When my machine went off which surprised me after the long silence. In the first bit of dirt there was a flat button! This is the first colonal era button I have dug in a long time . A foot away came a dropped musket ball and then another about 6 feet away another one.
Then the finds again became hard to come by .The big bonus was a cw minne that I dug about an hour later. I wish I could have made it here a few weeks ago before the grass started growing.It was fairly thick in some places.
I found three round balls and gave one to the inlaws ,one is chewed by what looks like maybe a squirl by the sharp teeth marks.
Can any one tell me what type of minne ball I dug? It is a two ringer. No coins but I did get to save a little history.
