TWO CAROLUS III COINS FROM SAME SITE, 1880'sTEMPERANCE TOKEN + MORE!

Well, got out yesterday and found some relics from one of my small soy bean fields that keeps producing some great relics. On November 7, I went out for 2 hours and found 6 flat buttons and one Carolus (Charles) III 1781 Spanish Coin. Yesterday, I pulled another Carolus III about 50 yards or so from the other last week. I am on a ball button streak also. I have gotten 4 in the past 2 weeks.

On November 13 I pulled a bent, but never-the-less, Virginia Button Canfield Bros & Co. Baltimore Backmark! Awesome stuff! A lot of mixed goodies to go along with it.

Also, a different type of token. A temperance token for the 1880's. Enjoy the pictures of a lot of different relics found that span from the 1700's-1900's. All found with my XP Deus! Thanks and HH and go over to my Facebook Page--Mid Atlantic Relic & Coin Hunters--we are getting ready to have a contest to give away a Garrett Ace 100 and a Garrett Pro-pinpointer. YOUTUBE--Video's up--Wes-N-VA!!!!!

Steve, your comment made me curious. I did some digging around and I did not realize that the trapezoidal buckle was so old? Man, I am pumped now bcause this was from a new site I just got on to the other day. The dates I so on a few sites have this buckle date to 1620-1680 WOW! I maybe wrong, but I saw a few matches on some UK sites. I am pumped to get back there now more than ever!!!!!

Nice assortment of recoveries - all good targets. I like the Spanish silvers and the trapezoidal buckle.
