Out with Ironhorse today and not much for ideas so we just picked a few spots we figured we might be able to dig some targets and things worked out fairly well. Besides the trash I threw away, I dug a small clasp, 2 musket balls, religious medallion, 30 buttons, Queen Victoria 5 cents, and 8 large coppers.

My three firsts are an American 2 Cent piece, Woods Hibernia... very ugly but finally! Don't know what took so long but finally crossed off the list.... and by far mt best of the day a patriotic King & Constitution button. :headbang: I have been familiar with these for many years so great to dig one.

I guess there was a few hiding out in that last group of fields we were in!
The King and Constitution button is the winner in that mix!

Good looking pile IP. Congrats of finding those "firsts", although I'm surprised that out of all the coppers you've ever found, this is your first Woods. Very cool to find the 2-cent, and the button is great. I know you love your buttons so I'm glad you found it.

Group shot, front center. None of the coppers were worth taking a picture of.

Another interesting group of very old finds-congratulations on finding a bucket lister. How old do you think the religious medallion is?

Great haul man and a big congrats on the 3 firsts, especially that hibernia and the button. Digging 30 buttons and 8 coppers in a day is an awesome hunt.
