On my way to the Hayfield I stopped by a friends new place of residence (his brother owns it just recently purchased 1600's farm) While I was there I set my phone on top of my car. Four miles down the rd I realized I had a senior moment then was back tracking to find it in the middle of the road. This is what the back looks like,Resized_20170303_123115.webp it was in an OtterBox that saved it from a 60 mph crash and I'm thinking someone hit it too? Who knows, still working, I got to the Hayfield and pulled up on a hawlk with a fresh still moving kill in his tallens, this is what the pic looked like before I toothpicked some glass away from the lense.20170303_1601111.webp
On my first pass of my grid I hit on the copper which I'm still cleaning. When I started my second pass I hit a nice 82 signal that sounded so sweet I thought to myself, Seated, then quickly started telling myself, Early American silver I found a clod the size of a hockey puck and was standing up looking through it. When I couldn't find anything I looked down and this is what I seen.Resized_20170303_160007.webp
I hunted for about three more hours and found buttons.
Enjoy the rest of the pix
