I have been getting out some this Fall, and digging enough to have a shot at something with a bit of wow factor... but it's just not happening and I have yet to have a day where I got home and was inspired to post. I wasn't able to prepare much for this Fall so that is no doubt a contributing factor, but as i said still digging enough, just not getting over the right one. Ironhorse and I have about three weeks to go so maybe I'll put in some thinking and research time to get the job done... or keep doing what we're doing (hunted fields, but plowed and in good digging condition) and hope to get lucky!

These are the better finds over my last several hunts. The keeper in the group here for me is the part of the gold marked cufflink as it breaks a decade long slump for finding gold. I'll never reject a Rev War button despite the condition, (3rd American - New York Volunteers), nor will I an 1812 Royal Regiment of Artillery that I have found before... or an early to mid. 18th century French buckle... even if bent, or a common copper in nice condition, or Colonial buttons that shine even if they are not military. Yeah you know it is pretty good stuff, so my lack of posting is probably just a result of what has been going on in life... and the truth of the matter is I need detecting way more right now than I need great finds. But I'll still take the big one if it comes along!

Finding new fields is a daunting task at the best of times, let alone fall/winter, and looking at the finds from I guess a banker field I would stick to it, because you can bet your last dollar, there is always a keeper for sure to be found. Never say dead.

Thanks for sharing your hunts, you find some great canadian items. Always learned something after reading your posts, and also from the other members of the Iron team

Nice going on the gold, not a common field find. You're out digging that's what counts and thinking that you still have three weeks left of digging is something to look forward to. Nice selection of buttons, I only wish that some those great looking ones would be in the soils that I turn.

I get it I haven't posted in todays finds for a while I love the anticipation of what I might find that's what keeps me going I love it. Yes every dog needs a bone though I think the majority of us don't find silver and or gold that often but that's ok looks like you have some good finds. I'm going to wish some good luck your way next hunt will pay off for ya!!!!!!!! Keep pluggin away!!!!!!Thanks for the post

Great finds man! Love the token (great condition), buttons and cufflink. The buckle is always a very welcome bonus!
