With what I've been diggin' up lately, don't know whether to get a fishing ....

license or a gun permit

Hank decided to watch the Golf Channel while I got out for a couple of hours around low tide time.

This beach is still quite sanded in, but there are spots that are opening up...hope it won't take too long.

Nothing of much significance on this hunt; those sinkers and bullets abound in the low tide mud.

I know nothing about bullets, musket balls, etc. so if I have labeled these items incorrectly, I would welcome a corrected ID

Was happy to get the 1947 "wheatie " in dry sand.

Here's some pics...thanks for looking

Surely with all that lead there HAS to be some gold mixed in. Love those low tide hunts though. It really opens up a lot more real estate.

The item with the hollow back may be a button cover. I found one similar in Pensacola at the site of an early settlement. I guess the cover was pressed onto a flat back with a button hook attached.

Thank you for the info , Petersra. I was thinking it might be a button of some kind, but couldn't figure out how it would attach to a base.
