Im getting really good at finding modern silver on colonial sites.:BangHead: Only reason I found the gold(looks legit), though, is because Im on a colonial site and dig everything. Small broken gold rings sound terrible. This one is missing the stone, marked 10k and a hefty 2.8 grams:laughing7: Also got the large pewter spoon handle and my first etched tombac (fragment:( ). The colonial silver gods continue to laugh at me

The colonial silver gods may laugh, however, I think that you are doing well. Congrats on the nice finds.

Hopefully some Spanish silver will show up for you shortly!

I did get the 1661 cob from this site but it is ugly. All my farm field permissions are about tapped out and planting season upon us. Not sure where Im hunting now:dontknow:
 

Looks like a good hunt to me. Congrats to you Mister.
 

Still a good day, even if the Fates mock us sometimes. There is more there!! Excavation time! : )
 

Better than a clad Rosie and and a plated ring haha. I'd be happy with your finds any day of the week!
 

They are great finds, I have been worried the fields are going to close up before the Silver Mafia hits town. Looks like allot will still be open. Keep digging and going back when you can.

Several of my permissions already have cover crop or whatever too high to detect including this spot. It was recently planted but not yet breaking the surface. Most of these finds were found along a small section that was sprayed with roundup for some reason
 

Congrats on a great day out swinging!
Good assortment of goodies. Gotta love Silver & Gold! :occasion14:
 

Awesome score! Love the gold!
 

Gold and silver is always a good day!! The minute you stop thinking about old colonial copper and silver it will come.
 

Awesome hunt
 

Congratualtions on the very productive hunt! :occasion14:
