Beautiful day today so I had to go detecting. Since I've discovered that beach hunting can be great for relic hunting (given the right kind of beaches) I've been researching several other areas nearby.
I went back to the area of beach where the majority of the musketballs came from and really combed that area. it is well away from the area where I found the cannonballs but there is still a chance of a cannonball from this site as well but not as likely. I immediately started finding the lead which always makes me happy. I found a few things which are going up on the What is It forum as I don't have a clue. I also found what appear to be two clay marbles but given where they were found I don't know. They were down at the extreme low tide line and were both found together.
The find of the day was also the biggest coincidence of the day. This morning before i left I posted in another thread about quartz arrowheads being common in this area. Well, I've never found one in this specific area but while walking the high tide line this one pops up! It's a beauty as well and one of the best I've found.
