Believe it or not, this is a first for me :)

I'd love to find one of those-- still looking for my first. Must be pretty cool to hear it jingle for the first time in however long it's been (I love being the first to handle a relic after it's been recovered).

I'm still waiting for my first crotal bell, too!
A big congrats to you!!

It definitely is! I was so happy that it still worked. It was very well preserved. They burn this field quite often and use some harsh fertilizers, but it was below all of that and in the "safe zone" If I dug something shallower than 5" inches in this field, it's toast.
