Wow I finally got out to do some detecting since this spring. I was on vacation this week. We went to the beach last Sunday. It was a good day for clad. I only spent two hours out there before the crowds came in for a total of $2.04.
I hit a 1700's home site with a friend of mine. The owner gave us lots of history about his property so we detected an old cellar hole in the property first. He found two Indian Head pennies 1860's and a few widgits. I found a nice old spoon and that's about it.
I went back out yesterday and did much better. Two Indian Head pennies 1900, 1905 both in pretty nice shape. I found a really nice brass bell. It had the letter B and the number 4 stamped in it on the top. I'm not sure if that would indicate size or weight? It cleaned up really nice. The clacker is missing but it still rings with just the wire in it.
In the woods opposite the cellar hole I found what seems to be a very small wedding ring. This is the second one I have ever found. It is made of some sort of nickel/pewter type material. No initials or anything in it. This is just a really cool piece and I love it. Also found were some nice colonial buttons and a few harmonic reeds Here are some pics of my finds. Thanks for looking
