No flowing hair coins, but I was very happy just to get out and swing a coil for the first time this year. The snow going fast now.

Only copper identified was 1815 Hostermann & Etter, Breton # 883
The button I thought was pretty cool, says "Harris + Hamel's" with a number 7. I'm assuming it is from the same time period. If anyone knows, say so.

Apparently I lost a big button, must have missed the pouch ?

Yep, you are new. ;D There's more in the ground there than you could ever imagine and it's waiting to be found.

You never know. I've dug two early silver in a day at least 4 times, and have probably gone 50 coppers, maybe more without one. Get this, what was probably our best copper site (known in these parts as the coppermine) gave up 150+ coppers and only one silver, and the silver was the last coin!
