Went back to the new site after work today.
Wednesday evening I only dug 2 plain flat buttons, so I took Thursday off.
Sure am glad I went back today.
I had a dinner date tonight, and I was only supposed to hunt for 1.5 hours.
I wasn't finding much, so I kept going.
Right around the 2 hour mark I dug another silver cob, and had to go.
Looks like I will be heading back in the morning.
This one is a Phillip 5 weighing at 1.9 grams. It is the largest half real cob I have ever dug.
For a minute I thought I had a 1R, nope just a big 1/2R




I also think I might have found an old Brass bowl/dinner plate. It is 6-1/4" wide and about an inch deep.
It was in a hole that might be a trash pit. There was a bottom of an old black glass bottle in the hole, some bricks, and lots of pieces of glass.
This was dug in the same area my flat buttons, and Script I pewter came out of.
Could it be an 1812 ish era dinner bowl? Older? Newer?
