I hunted an 1870s field site today and got lucky.
It was chisel plowed and a little hard to hunt.
I hunted for an hour and was just getting iron signals when I got a good solid 80 on the F 70.
Dug down 6 inched and found the 1856 LC.
Found the pewter Whatzit about 5 minutes later.
I hunted another hour and was about to leave when I got a solid 40 signal.
I thought prolly a tab top but when I hunt these old sites I dig everything non ferrous.
Found this ring down about 2 inches and tangled in the corn roots. It is worn thin and has no Karat markings. Prolly wore off.
What a thrill.
Thanks for looking and best luck my friends.

Is the ring a two color gold? May be Black Hills. Nice, real nice.
