Work was canceled due to rain this morning so I was at loss as to what to do. Well , by 11:00 am , the rain had stopped and I decided to go metal detecting. I got permission to hunt around one of the oldest houses in my county and the surrounding fields. As far as the owner knew , it had never been detected. i started around the front of the house near the porch steps and found a lot of memorial pennies, a few clad dimes , a clad quarter and nickle. Then i headed around the side and found a lot of trash. I moved away from the house and hit the field and i saw an arrowhead on the surface. A few minutes later i found a tombac button. I wandered out about 200 yds to the old family cemetery and found a 1944 merc dime. On the way back, I found a piece of colonial buckle , an oval decorative piece of thin brass, a rein guide ( terret), a pocket knife ,brass lock, and some other brass and lead objects.
here are some pics
thanx for looking and HH y'all
