1780's Grist mill 1-17-2011

1-17-11 29 degrees but things got hot at the old mill . Old blow hole button started the mourning . I don't dig these 1600 buttons every hunt but when I do find one , good things can happen! Some horse relics , skeleton key , large rosette , and some nice early button finds today. Thanks for stopping in, daWg

that site is giving you some amazing finds

Thanks Allen , still has alot of unsearched dirt

Neat finds. Especially like the Egyptian looking silver thingy (technical term and the tower button. Any idea what the tiny basket piece is?
Quite the playground you've found there. Enjoy.

Egypt metal is silver and looks like it was a medallion.....other thing is a colonial lemon squeezer

That's what I'm talking about, Awesome Finds CMDawg! Glad to see your still getting out!

Thanks Dave, Maybe a tea ball squeezer

Thanks for the information buddy. Can't say that I've ever seen one of those before?

I sure wouldn't have wanted to have gotten on the bad side of my wife back in Victorian times if she had one of those babies lying around!

Cheers,
Dave

I was thinking about you as I drove through Millville today! It still looks like quite a bit of snow, but glad you made it out!

Hi Neil , I am further South , a few inches left Monday . The snow is actually helping , I can grid by watching where my tracks are made and the ground is not frozen underneath of the snow .. plus the moisture is sending deep hits back through the headphones , especially on copper ... Today was a complete melt down to zero and temps felt like Spring , perfect hunting conditions .
