Had no time to hunt but had a very close spot so I said to myself a half hour is better than nothing. In that time I dug one possibly two 1861 Nova Scotia one cents and a bigger heavy copper coin. One of the Nova Scotia coins is very crusty but i believe it's is one. Maybe I'll find out later. The big coin is a mystery because I think it's british and possibly I see George iii but it is bigger,thicker and heavier than the others I found before. Maybe someone can id it for me.

Also I found a little flat button that looks like it has a man standing next to a anchor? Maybe my eyes are playing tricks but in person it sure looks like it.

Last I found two "ox balls". I wish all my short hunts turned out so well. Glad it went. Thanks for looking! :)

Nice coins, but I got excited when I seen your ox balls!
Haaaaaaaa I know that doesn't sound right (It's just funny)
The other day I found one, I thought it was a piece of plumbing?

Very nice results for the short hunt, worth another longer hit before the ol' man knocks out the season.

I found a few before and thought plumbing or something too but the locations were never right for them to be there. Last one I found I thought about oxen horns and looked it up. Who knew in the end I'd like finding old ox balls!
Haha
