Hello all hope your all out swinging and finding cool stuff
I've gone out a few days solo
The other b. O.b ,s have been to busy so
Solo I go
We have been working this site a full year now
And I don't think we are the very first
I've pulled a lot of great items and this trip was no different
Three days ago I pulled a D/B 1/2 cent
And yesterday I pulled a buckle at the time I looked at it I thought
(eh A buckle I'll look later )
Well when I got home I was cleaning what I thought to be the front
I found nothing I turned it over and picked a clod off I saw the eagle
I nearly fainted. It cleaned up well I called bartek and scrappy and Carolina Tom and loco even my mom lol. It's my first plate Tom and steve pinned it right away
Today I was still flying high so I said I'm going out again
I was pleased to find another first a Vermont copper ( not sure of exact date )
Along with acoranet head lg cent and a cool button with a bust on it ( any guesses ) and the usual bag of trash
Thanks for reading a long post. Hh gl

Love the Eagle Plate!
 
Great recovery! Congrats on the plate and the copper, a day to be remembered for sure.
 
Your on a roll Charlie, the buckle is awesome. It will look great in your display. I sure wish I had old ground to detect daily like you and the other BOBs. Looking forward to hunting with ya'll in the future.
 
Congrats on a great looking belt plate.
 
Big congrats my man. That's one of those holy grail finds. That thing might have made a trip down South and back, who knows.

When I got that first pic, my mouth fell open!

Best of luck to you in the field sir.
 
Awesome job, Love the detail in the plate.
 
Killer finds!!
 
Wow on all of the finds! That plate is a dream find for me..

2017_06_07.webp

dug in March 2016 at 1686 Colonial farm, Ulster County, NY
 
Unusual Neoclassical looking button, not seen that type before, any clues on the reverse?
 
Nice digs Charlie. Those belt plates are easy targets, so I bet not many are still in the ground. Great site and score!
 
Awesome hunt!! Copper and belt plate, I'd be thrilled! Congrats and HH
