Was able to get out today for a foundation hunt with a couple friends. We hunted this foundation last year and my buddy FatTony315 found 2 large cents and a flying eagle cent here. I slowed my hunting way down today and was really listening for some good targets mixed in with the incredible amount of iron signals at this site. Literally every hole I dug had at least 2 nails in it with whatever else I was finding. I was happy with my E-trac today. Dug two large coppers that I really had to work for. I barely heard a little high chirp in between all the iron. First one turned out to be an 1850 braided hair variety. Looks like it will have a ton of detail after cleaning. The second one is a Matron Head variety and is an 1828. Also looks to have very good detail under the dirt. Both of the LCs were 5-6 inches deep and surrounded by iron.
Found some other nice relics at the site including a pocket knife.
A harmonica reed. I've found a ton of these over the years but never a round edged one like this before.
I'm not sure what this is so any help would be appreciated.
Five buttons came up, including a small cuff sized two piece with an eagle on it. Any ideas as to age on this one? Military related?
Suspender buckle.
An interesting piece of a buckle with a cool design on it.... almost looks like an alien head on it. See what you think.
Here's a few compilation pics.
