6 COPPER DAY! BROKE 70! YEE HAW!

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

Got out with Gary (foundationhunter) to some sites we haven't been to yet.
1st couple were really quiet one small flat button from each site.onto the next...that was pretty quiet for the most part but after fanning away from the hole 100 yards into the woods i nabbed a shoe buckle frame,then a nice 2 piece floral button coe backmark,next signal was a mutilated holed 1842 braided hair LC,then 10 feet from that i dug a matron head 1816.
we decided to walk up the trail stone walls on both sides and we see a open field with walls all around it.we could see a slight depression in the front of the field .we searched that area and quite a few targets surfaced I think we found...... a homesite plowed over !!!!!
4 more coppers for me.2 toasted matron heads no dates,a possible draped bust LC and a worn smooth copper,a musket ball. last target was a pewter cast buton with a fleur di fleury can never pronounce that nevermind spell it
Gary got a nice KG II,a few buttons & a knee buckle.
was a great hunt,weather was nice,no ticks and I broke 70 coppers on the year with 74 3/4's!

A big congratulations HMN and you set a high bar for yourself to exceed in Copper recoveries in 2012. You stayed after it and showed that persistence pays off. You should be very proud Bud. HH, Quindy.

WoW what a year!

 

[bookfisher]

Great finds! You guys have some great sites to hunt up there. I wish Long Island still looked like that. I would hunt every inch of a site like that.

question is the fleur de lis pewter button any significance? or was that just a popular motiff on early colonial buttons?

 

[Nooberz]

Sweet!! 70 coppers isn't something to shake a stick at. Good Job!

 

[West Jersey Detecting]

Hmm, let's see when my last copper day was...Oh yeah, it was NEVER! Congratulations! You have a week left to break 100!

I found a similar button last year.
