I know there's no excuse for not getting out much to detect, but it seems lately I just haven't had the chance.
Here are some of my finds from the last few hunts. Some from the 1800 plantation property pasture, and a few from the 1818 property soybean field.
I guess my best digs were the 3-ringer and the two arrowheads (surface finds). Nothing too exciting.
Any idea what kind of buckle this is and from what era? It was found close to the 3-ringer. CW troops camped here, but I have no clue if it is that old?
The highlight of my weekend was being able to dig through an old shed that was falling apart at a house that was being sold.
I was given the green light to take whatever I wanted, since the owners were going to be renting a dumpster and just throwing everything away. Besides a dried possum, I found a lot of neat old things including this cast iron 15 gallon cooking pot, and a butter churn crock with a "3" on it.
Any idea of the age or value of either of these two pieces?
Also found old bikes, trikes, chairs, two man wood saw, tools, and much, much more.
I felt like a kid in a candy store.
I just set up a booth at an antique store recently, so some of these things will come in handy.
Thanks for looking & have a great week folks,
MM
