I haven't had much of a chance to hunt since daylight savings ended but I did manage to get a few hours in this weekend. I stayed out late Friday evening and hunted in the dark. It was unbelievably warm and a beautiful night. I was out at night in shorts and a tee shirt again. That's just crazy in November.
Just as I was winding down and wrapping things up I scored two more rings within 5 minutes not 20 feet apart. They're both junk; one honker stainless and one junk kids ring but they're still rings. I swear, the Delta is a freakin' ring machine. If they're there, it WILL sniff them out.
I thought the big one was silver at first but it was not to be this time. Oh well, it's still #'s 51 & 52 so I'm cool with that.
I was able to get back to the same spot just before dark tonight and found another old flat button. The hoop is gone and it's pretty rusty but not bent. The only word I can make out is "London". All of my others so far are American so this is my first old foreign button.
I also found a huge (and ugly IMO) "Scorpio" medallion and a 1944 Wheatie. I can't believe I never found the medallion before considering how I've pounded this field and the size of the thing. Then again, things are always changing. Maybe the rain helped it to appear. Same goes for the button. I found it in an area I've hit many times. It rang up pretty faint but of course, I dug it anyway.
Not too terrible for limited hunting time I guess.
That's about it for now.
Thanks for looking & HH........
