Hello everyone,
Been a very busy yr here for me with the new baby. Been working alot and hunting very little. I'm still around though on a daily basis. I now like to just sit back watch and read what others are finding. Posting for me will come in spurts due to time.
I haven't had very much luck these past 6 weeks. We have been to alot of great looking sites. They have only given up minimal of finds. Enough to peak our ineterest and keep us looking for the next better site.
I will have to say also I've been spending alot of time hunting with a buddy of mine who moved to FL. He is going to be here for the next 120 days getting his military disability ect. He can't hunt the areas me and Lance hunt due to vast injuries over his life.
We need decent terrain for him to hunt. I've realized that most of the time the best finds are in the toughest areas to get to. More old timers in the hobby than younge guys like us. But we've shared a few good moments while out adventuring.
I found probably a five gallon bucket of relics not show. Plus alot of clad has been picked up also. This is my favorite season. I'm gonna have some time off here from work. So I hope to score a few more bigger finds before the end of the yr.
I still passed the 50 silver mark this yr for not hunting alot. I usually avg about a 100 pieces per season. But I have had half the time now.
Sorry to ramble. Maybe I should get to the items show. The best find I thought was the Spur. It was a real surprize. It came from what I think to be a old foundation site. There was a old stone wall and such present. Need to go back and hunt it again. It was still ghrown in.
Coins wise alot of wheats as you can see. Got a few silver rings. Got a really nice tie clasp I think marked sterling. It is old and still opens and closes perfectlly. Got a shield nickle 1870 I think. One indian and a v-nickle.
Also The merc that was run over by a train. Damn I thought I had my first Spanish piece of silver. It will come at some point. Getting tougher to find areas that old undisturbed.
As you can see I don't even have all the items cleaned up for posting. I always have my items cleaned before showing. I haven't even had alot of time to clean my finds. I'm lucky I get to hunt anymore. It's 1:30 a.m and I'm posting this.
Feal free to shoot me any questions you have. Anyone else know the exact date on the spur. I'm thinking like around 1885.
Thanks alot everyone,
HH Jer
