This was the first hunt that I have been on since early spring. My dad had a heart attack on April 25th, so I have put the Metal Detecting on the back burner for the summer and have been spending most of my time with him. He is doing fine now and we are both smoke free :icon_thumleft:

This morning I swung at a site that I found last fall. An early site in the top edge of a hay field overlooking the Village. The site has coughed up my secong George Washington Inaugural Button, Spanish silver, George II copper, ETC. The finds are getting pretty scarce now but I can usually count on something old from this site. Today was no exception with a Masonic cufflink being the keeper of the day. This is my first early cufflink of any kind that I have dug. Missing the shank but in otherwise pretty good shape.

I sure am glad that the field was mowed this week!

Thnk You for the replies.

This is the first Masonic item that I have dug. Not much of a signal at about 6" deep. I am digging every non-ferrous signal that I can find.

Man that cuff link is really cool! The G in the center is odd looking and you can totally tell it was hand made. Absolutely amazing. I hope I am lucky enough to find anything Masonic. Congrats! And a huge Congratulations on being smoke free. That is very difficult to say the least. Keep up the good work! WH
