Today I did four hours on the "Church Field". I dug every non-ferrous signal I found. Small, shankless buttons were poping up everywhere. I managed a few good finds today. No more G.W. Buttons but a good hunt. The only old coin find was a 1799 Farthing. The Jews Harp is something that I have wanted to dig for a while now:icon_thumright: The rest of the stuff is your typical Tombac buttons, round balls, bullets and a few other relics to weigh dowm my displays.

Nice digs! How are you cleaning those buttons up?

The buttons came out of the ground pretty nice. I am lucky to have sandy soil in this field so the finds clean up easy. I use hot Peroxide and finish with vaseline.

Nice Farthing...I haven't dug on of those yet,same with the jew's harp
 
That's a good hunt VPR! I have never found a decent Jews Harp, just a couple broken ones. Farthings like that one don't show up too often around here. They are usually KG II Brittanias or Hibernias.
 
Great finds.I like that farthing and buttons are always cool to dig.
