What should of been about an 8 hour hunt, ended up as about a 4 hour hunt. I slept in. Shame on me.
My third trip to new new plantation spot turned up a few things, but nothing fantastic yet. I started out by the old tenant (slave) house in the woods. All that is left are a deep sunken hole, foundation stones, and a crumbled chimney (pictured). Also pictured are one of the huge oaks by this tenant house, and a deep open well. This all sits very close to a deep dry river bed. There is a LOT of metal and old jars/bottles around this area. I will have to spend a lot of time around there later.
After about 30 minutes, I went back in front of the main plantation house and spent the rest of my day gridding off 1/2 of the front yard. My only coins found on this side were wheats so far. (My Buff nickel & Barber dime I found earlier this week were found on the other half of the yard)
My regular machine with the DD web coil should be back from the shop this week, so hopefully I can start hitting some more silver when I get it back. I'm using a new Silver Umax with stock 8" coil so far.
My coolest find for the day was an old watch FOB.
Here's my 4 hour hunt:
*Watch FOB- Says "Bro-Mal-Gine for headaches. Does not depress the heart."
Any idea on the age of this one?
*Wheats- 1915D , 1917 , 1936 , 1937 , 1941 , 1946 , 1958.
*Found by tenant house in woods: Truck gas cap , Tootsietoy , Green bottle, Large wagon or horse equip piece.
Any idea what the wagon/horse piece is? Age?
Any idea on the green bottle? It only says "4/5 Pint" on it.
*Brass "Royal" padlock.
*Gold plated jewelry pin piece.
*Odds & ends.
Thanks for looking & any help on the ID's would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
MM
