Its been a while since i posted here....I found some great stuff, so i thought i would share my finds.
I found this 1621-1655 Cob out in a field over the weekend...I couldnt believe it when i saw it in the hole :icon_thumleft:...Im pretty sure its 1637 because there is a 37 on the corner...It is tiny and barely made a signal...I also found the 1695-1701 William coppers in the same field...I found the george and Beautiful Shoe Buckle last week......The buckle is Artois style and from 1770's to 1790's and it works like new :thumbsup:
I took alot of pics of the buckle trying to show the patina..patina is had to capture on camera...The 1737 george is in great shape too..Anyways Enjoy the pics :icon_thumleft:

Some sweet stuff. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Are you in MA?

*Just realized you already answered this question. My bad. I am actually visiting family in MA right now. I don't know any serious detectorists up here.
