A Handful of Colonial Buttons and Relics

[Kirk PA]

KKC got permission for a couple new sites. We hit one of the fields today and it sure paid off in big dividends. I won't steal their thunder. This site was loaded with Colonial buttons. All of the signals turned out to be from the 1700s. It sure was fun to hunt, but I wish I would have dug up one copper. I can't win them all though, but I am happy with the buttons I dug.

I will need some help with the one relic I dug. Any ideas? Could it be a gun part?

Keep the passion high!

You were the relic finder of the day for KKC! How many buttons did you dig, bro? 9? I dug 9 today!

You'll get something killer in the horse pasture on Saturday! My bones are telling me that we are due again!

I'd take a handfull of buttons like that anyday I don't know what size coils you guys were using but you might want to try going over the same area with smaller coils. That helped DeArmitt snag his Flowing Hair last year.

Nice bunch of relics. I believe the piece in a decoration from a horses harness. I have found some similar.

Don't you just love the button patches.
Next Sat will be your day Kirk, I can feel it.

 

[Woodland Detectors]

Nice "handfull" of relics there man!
I'll take those digs all day long.
I'm stuck here digging up old home-site yards dodging rattlesnakes.
Horse tack is what I believe the unknown piece to be. Adhered to leather somehow.

I always enjoy poppin' buttons from the ground ! I prefer coppers, but the buttons will do....

You day is comming my colonial brother
