went back to 2 old pounded sites and worked them for 8 hours.not many targets left but I squeeked out a few keepers.
The Lid with holes in it and the cloak or dandy button were amongst a ton of nails on the cellar hole lip.a real old pocket knife. the floral one piece button has a Ive's Scott co superfine backmark and the beat 1803 draped bust large cent was in the trail going up to a second cellar hole. 9 1/2 coppers on the new year.what a great winter it's been.watch it fella's the ticks are still active! :angry5:

nice finds,,, i found my button today with a garden rake :tongue3:
 

RELIC MODE.......
 

congrats on the copper and that dandy is a MONSTER!
 

I like it :icon_thumright: Great dig's!!
 

love the b/m on that flower button Dave, never seen it anywhere :headbang:
 

After your copper total from 2011 Dave, I didn't think you had a sniff of a chance to top it in 2012. However, you are off to another big copper count. The knife I dug on the left side of the combined finds from the Trio hunt today looks a lot like the one you found regarding shape. Mine did have a shield just like one in Crouch's CW relic book that was from England. HH, Q.
 

I really like the unusual design on the dandy, but that Ives Scott button threw me for a loop. Looking at the design on the front, I would have expected a 1790's button with no backmark, not an 1830's Ives Scott!
 

Sweet finds!

All the best,

Lanny
 

Sweet dude, you're doing awesome!
 

Great button and copper. Congrats.
 

Buttons cleaned up nicely! Nice finds once again!
 

Been huntin in PA a lot and have brought home 3 ticks myself so I know what you mean Keep the faith and HH
 

Nice haul man, love the flower button! :thumbsup:
 

Cool finds, I love the Knife.... :icon_thumright:
