What Yard??
I need a yard like that!!!
Nice finds, MM!!!
Me too Ty.

This is the plantation house yard. I found these wheats a few inches deep in the gravel drive at the edge of the lawn. I'm sure a lot of coins are buried in this huge driveway.

Doug,
You better hit that pasture! There are Reales waiting!

Nice digs!
Kirk
Thanks Buddy.
I'm hitting the next pasture on Sat. if it's not a rain out. I'm just about finished with my 1st gridding on the side yard.
Good luck to you guys on Sunday.

the ring screw in thingy I think is for the top of a lamp shade.
Nice digs
Maybe, but it's awful large for a lamp. I'm thinking horse related possibly.
Thanks,
MM
Hey Doug...
I agree on the horse related part,look's to me like a guide ring for the horse harness and pretty old at that.The cleaner is a "type 3".Congrat's on the all the find's Bud,just never know!!
Thanks Civil.
I found the bullet only a few inches deep on the dirt path from the house to the barn. I'm glad it stayed there for about 150 years.

Nick,
Thanks for the ID's. That heart is definitely old. It was in a hot spot where I found the cleaner bullet and suspender clip (last hunt).
Looking forward to starting our challenge on Easter.

That's a cool good luck charm MM. I've found a couple of them over the years. Don't you wish there would be a silver dime in there instead of the wheaties they put in em'.
Bryce,
Man you got that right. A silver dollar even.

Type III cleaner. Hey! I have one of those danged brass threaded thingys too! I'd love to figure out what they are. Mine is shaped a little differently...but certainly too big for a lamp shade piece.
Nice hunt. CW relics on a lunch break...I call that a GREAT lunch. (I've gotta find a way to try that sometime!)
-Buckleboy
Thanks BB.
Yeah, I can't complain. I have three old sites right by work. What more could I ask for? (Besides a CW buckle or gold coin

)
Have a great w/end.

Bullet is a williams cleaner type 3 , I believe the round brass piece with the threads on it is a guide for the reins on a horse harness for driving a wagon or carriage. Cool stuff!
Thanks Dig.
I thought it was horse related. I found it right next to the horse pasture.

Dude. I'm coming down tomorrow and hunting Saturday.

Yeah, I wish. Dan and I will most likely hook up this weekend although we still might have some snow on the ground and it will be a bit chilly.....
The Lucky Horseshoe is cool. Nate found one of those with a 40's wheat in it at my brothers house. About the same bad shape as yours.
Good luck Saturday.
You gonna hit that horse riding area?
When is spring break for your kids? Ours are off the week after Easter. I'll have to take Nate out on a hunt or two.
Bob
Bob,
You know you guys are always welcome here at Club Miner. Not to be confused with Michael Jackson's "Club MINOR".

My kids are out starting next Wed. and all of the following week. Wifey has been out in Cali on biz, so my detecting has been limited to only lunch time.

Good luck to you guys. If I know you and Dan, we'll be seeing some nice finds soon.

Have a great weekend,
Doug
