Copper, Silver & Knights Templar!

[The Rebel]

Hey all, been a while since I last posted, but here are my finds from the last few hunts.
One of these was with my buddy Frank. We hiked to the site & as I was pulling my tector over my shoulder I hear a SNAP! Snapped my toggle switch right off getting ready to start the day's hunt.

Was able to hunt a while until we went back to his house so I could borrow his 350. Lesson learned, so now I carry 2 spares & a #10 Torx with me so if it happens again, I can do a field repair.

Some interesting things to note: Knights Templar badge of some sort. At one of my sites I bent down to dug my target & was surprised with this Naval Button from a Pea Coat. AHR Co = American Hard Rubber Co. Not sure what the HP stands for. My guess it's from WW1 as everything from this site dates to the colonial period to the 1920's. Same site different target I got this glass red bead.

HH & Merry Christmas!
Roger

Nice digs. Congrats on the Connecticut copper and the silver. I'm still looking for a heart heelplate, I have two clovers, and would like to get a heart.
