Hi All
Got out for two short hunts after work,
First I went back to the new boatyard, cleared a lot more lead & brass scrap.
underneath I got the first coins from this site, one right after the other, and just the way I like, flip the mud and rocks, see the lovely green discs, no pinpointing
Looks to be a George II Young Head, 1730s or so.
I got a blank copper, now I see the remains of Brittanias image.
then an 1854 Large Cent, since this ones patina was chipped, I gave it the Hot/cold treatment, stripped the green, and got the date.
3 flat buttons and a nice lead Plumb Bob. (love the black patina on the old saltwater lead too! ).
Big old Thick copper spoonbowl & plated copper teaspoon.
'Quaker' lead seal, Oats??
18th & 19th century mackeral jigs
Oh yeah, largest clay pipestem yet, almost 6 inches, 'W White Glasgow'
Stopped at the town beach on my way home, (last summer 3 gold diamond rings in one hunt!!)
I got a handfull of clad, & a couple junk rings, then a nice signal which revealed a nickel, I knew before I looked it would be a silver, My first with any detail
Thanks for looking, Best Digs to you all
