I just got back home last night from vacation out East with my family. We traveled through 11 different states and spent most of our time on the coast. I can't explain how much I drooled over all of the old houses and sites I was seeing. We spent a few days in Maine and wow, much nicer there than I expected. On the 3rd night in Maine, we stayed at a hotel in southern Maine and I had made earlier arrangements with Steelheadwill for a hunt with him in New Hampshire. I can't say enought about how great Herbie treated me. He not only took me to some of his favorite spots, he actually drove out of his way to pick me up from my hotel. We went to a few of his spots and man oh man, are these places OLD. It is so much fun to hunt a place where so much history is...you never know what you can find. Anyway, after a day-long hunt with Herbie, here are just a few of my finds. I ended up with some buttons including some old pewters, one of which is an 1812 era Script I. Herbie's face lit up when he seen that button so I knew then it was a keeper. I also dug a big 1892 Columbus Exposition Token. Herbie thought at first that it was an aluminum token but it feels heavier. I haven't quite found an exact match on this one on the internet yet to know if it is rare or not. Also found a silver ring at one of Herbie's good swimhole locations. It was pretty dark when I found it and Herbie spotted the sterling mark inside. I have cleaned it a little so far. Anyway, there was so many other interesting finds but I only am showing a few here. Thanks Herbie for sharing your good sites with me, glad to make a new friend.
