Tried to make it as a host.

[pepperj]

Met up with Dave(Antiquarian)and tried a few spots-
Well it was windy, overcast, spotty showers yesterday and I really tried to get some last minute permissions to be a accommodating host, but totally bombed out on both sites for finds. The first been a original house site or what is believed to be, turned up a brass item that I have misplaced the other end, and a toe tap for the 2hrs of hunting that we put into the site. The second site where I tried the Scrappy mojo, was a total bomb. It was time for Dave to head out and I decided to stick with the hunting, then I got a call to help find s missing tool that the farmer dropped off a building platform. So I went to the location but couldn't find the tool because of the iron that was laying around the site plus the weeds. So I put a little bit of detecting time in on my corn stalk corner. The results were a lead object, broken scissor handle, 1942 Wheat, plus a large iron hook, the only reason I am showing the find is in the hole I got another high tone so I redug the hole and out popped the 1813 token!Just proves that the ears are better judging a target than any screen number.

Yesterday was a lot of fun Jim, I learn something new about detecting every time we hunt together.
I was truly excited yesterday and thought for sure that homestead site would show us the goods!

I still don't think that was an old house site though, the finds coming up just weren't right.
There was no glass, not pottery and only the occasional square nail. I'm still thinking that either a small barn or an animal shelter likely stood there.
That's one sweet looking Half Penny too!

Thanks again for yesterday buddy, you have a beautiful home and view too!

Thanks Dave you're just too easy to please.
Too bad the weather kind of sucked as the finds did, worthy of another try?-not. We can only hope for the weather to hold out so the crops will come off the station fields, then we'll have some fun.
The wild GSD liked you, long lost buddy and he just met you.

That half penny token is really cool and in excellent condition. Nice score there Pepp!

Thanks Scrappy
No mojo once again, a 6 hrs of swinging to produce a keeper.

Even though the soils are heavy clay it seems that the older ones are surviving the test of time.

It's a keeper that's for sure, but I'd trade it for the Deus.
