3 different sites - 2 most recent & 1 never posted about

Some coins and relics from my most recent hunts. The most recent was Monday. Mostly rough looking stuff but it was fun in spite of the crazy wind that almost blew me away this past Monday. The ornate furniture knobs and 1781 halfpenny come from a site in lower Delaware while the other stuff comes from 2 different sites in eastern Maryland.

Headed to Virginia this Friday...

Cant wait! Gonna pick Bill D's pockets! LOL

Cast pewter spoon handles (or forks). My oldest sites produce these by the pound.

this rough looking thing is a 1696 Irish 1/2d I think. I can see a 96 to the right of a harp.

That's exactly what I thought it was, but I didn't see the 96 and still don't.

Some great old stuff you got there, and at places like that, as you are well aware, awesome things can happen!
