I took my twice annual trip into the city this morning to hunt my favorite park. The part I hunt is all wooded and was used as an artillery range from the late 1700s to the mid 1800s. I have previously found dozens of musketballs, Sniders and Enfields at this site as as well as a slew of other finds. This site is the side of a wooded hill. Soldiers would fire from ships in the harbour to site in their muskets. Heavy artillery has also been pounded into this site but I have yet to find a cannonball.
My very first target was the four coins in one hole. There are two 1861 Nova Scotia Cents, an 1859 large cent and...my favorite, an 1874 Vicky 10 cent!
Other finds include a silver and iron whistle which I will do a little digging on to establish the era. Looks like an old police whistle.
Only a couple pieces of lead including a fired 57 Snider. Thanks for looking.
