had the afternoon off so i made a beeline back up to my very 1st cellar holes that got me hooked on this aspect of the hobby.
a few buttons,2 tombacs,1 pewter button some broken shoe buckle frames 2 lead musketballs & 1 made of pewter.I asked this question before but never got any response on it.If lead was unavailable was it common practice to pour pewter for shot? I've dug several and just curious?
Last 3 targets were all coins.a 1865 indian head penny,a holed 1787 Connecticut copper and a ? KGI? not sure what it is? :icon_scratch:
this makes 70 IH's on the year and not far behind in the large copper dept at 65 3/4 I hope I can make 70!
see how much time was spent laying the stones in the old road.makes you appreciate how hard these colonists worked and what pride they took in their travel routes
