After a great site gave us an incredible 2019, I knew 2020 would be a challenge. Had some great hunts with some new colonial era sites to work and promise for 2021. Here are my best finds of 2020.

Only 2 spanish silvers but my first holed one. And what I think is my oldest copper, I believe its a William III based on the bow.

A few nice buttons including my first and second (and only) civil war buttons, A and I block letters as well as a British Rev War artillery and war of 1812 US artillery and a few nice civilian decorative buttons and lots of plain flat buttons...the vast majority.

Had some nice misc artifacts.. thimbles-

The new site we have found is very promising with a lot of buttons and colonial artifacts in our first try this week.
