First ring of the year

[Coin Hound]

I returned to the previous house where I found some nice tokens.

Came up with a nice sterling ring and a few wheaties. I re-searched the spot I was the previous day. Only missed a shallow quarter.

I crapped out at another house, looked SO promising. Not every farmer drops money

Tonight I stopped by another farm and the lady informed me there was a racetrack there at the turn of the century. My heart started pounding so off to the field I went.

After about an hour all I had was a horse ID pin and a (looks like) colonial musketball--about 38 caliber. Definately NOT machine made.

I need to do some research on this one.

The lady was real nice (AGAIN made nice with her dogs). She told me the house across from her dates from the 1820s and she gave me permission to search it.

The 1820s house is about 1/2 mile off the road. Is it possible the log cabin era home were built before there was a road, just a 'path' or trail to one home from another? Does that explain why some home where I live set so far back?

Sounds like a great place to hunt and you are doing well with the finds.

I do know what you mean.

When I see photos of the places I search and I stand where the picture was taken ...some places do have spirits!

I am going to try to get to the house Monday.
