1800s creek house hunt.

1800s 'creek house' hunt.

I have a site down by a creek where I found on an old map where a lone house used to be. (1802ish map) so after digging countless trash the river brought up thru floods, I started getting better targets. I dug copper wires corroded, square nails, lead balls, brick fragments, pottery frags, broken buttons, gun furniture, glass, bead, ac parts, and coins!

On the path up I started to hit newer coins, and about 30 corroded pennys.

The cold and rain came in half way through the hunt, time I left she was turnin to snow. Hopefully have time to hit this site again, gives me time to get away from angry pregnant wife.

Nice finds !

Wow. Wish the nickles I dug were shiny like that.

Every single one I've ever dug is brown and a bit rough around the edges.

Particularly the V's, shields, and buffs.

Most be something extremely unusual about the soil conditions around there.

I thought the same, either the soil polished them or the OP cleaned them in some way?
