ZDD & me on the dusty treasure trail again.
We arrive on site, conditions perfect, though a tad warm. No grass like a herbicide had been sprayed. Between the two of us I think there was a house site there. Dave got a massive skeleton key, and a watch winder among other stuff. I got the juice harp. We wandered off into the deeper grass for a bit, then I came back, and eyeballed the clay pipe piece, then a shoe buckle piece came up. Was thinking at that point something good was about to happen.
Well I did pop out a small silver, had no water so had to wait to see what it was. Then just like a rain shower it all dried up. Still a lot of fun, it shouldn't be forgotten a lot of folks just don't have time to have leisure activities, I am glad to have that luxury.
Haven't emptied the pouch yet, but horse tack, ox shoes, and junk is all I remember putting in it.
I'm thinking some of the goodies have sunk out of range here, the soil quite soft, and I dug holes at least a foot deep a couple of times, one being the decorative brass piece shown.
The silver is 1918
ZDD "going in"
This is from a previous hunt, wondering if what looks like a triger guard is ? as it was only connected at one end. I don't know, but that is what it looks like to me.
