I went to the silver buckle field during work and did a short hunt. The weather was miserable but I was desperate as usual. First hit was a flat button and then the 1815 halfpenny. Got a few more round balls but they are plentiful on that field so they are nothing new to find. Thanks for looking! [emoji2]

This is what it would look like usually...

Good find "K", I got that one once, probably in worse condition.
Don't try too much cleaning on that one, no more than a thumb rub, I can see from the edges that HP might well destroy that fragile looking copper.

Cudos for always having the tector with you and making the most of you lunch hour.

I will be out there very soon.

Still a lot of snow your way? It's mostly gone here but it was so late melting that I missed my spring. Two month lobster season started that I have to go work every day all day. Gotta take the detector for any free minute I can get! [emoji2]
