Big silver and CW buttons found while diving.

[riverdiver]

I returned to an area I hit earlier this month that gave up an 1875 Seated Liberty Quarter and 1-Infantry Coat button. This time I recovered a beautiful 1900 Barber Half, 3 more Infantry buttons and 1 Artillery button plus some other colonial goodies.

How are you finding the clay pipes and stems are they visual finds? I love seeing the old pipes found they are awesome.

Hi doc-d and back-of-the-boat,

Doc the river maxes out at 28' and averages 15'.

Back-of-the-boat are you ready for this...all of my finds for the last 3 years have been visual, like a fool I left batteries in my detector and rotted the wires. I have found so much more by hand fanning that I have not had the detector fixed, there is a lot of large iron chunks in river bottoms that wash out the good signals, so I hand fan and stay really close to the bottom and eyeball the finds.

Beautiful Barber.
