Hey everyone, :hello: The weather here has held me back for two weeks now.Been on here seeing all the good finds coming in has had me about to bust to do some Mding.So the weather cut for me today and I went back to the Goody Spot.Although tide not real low yet the wind here is right now to start taking it out finally. :headbang: Finds aren't cleaned yet but took some pics. anyway.I'll clean in awhile need to get cleaned myself first.But it's more shot,two bigger pieces and few little ones,piece of pipe,buttons,lead scrap,I think the piece with the US on it is a pad lock not sure yet,And last but not least a cut piece of spanish silver bigger then my other pieces(would of been a larger coin I mean.Had not looked it up yet either.Just walked through the door.Back in awhile! :thumbsup:

Cut silver is where it is at! I bet that river gives up another cob soon. I bet you have your mind on a water machine. :headbang: :wink: :D

Get to those woods now! :headbang:

Thanks for sharing!

Nice finds TK :headbang: The weather is going to be GRRRRREAT this week. but I'll be stuck at work. Hopefully the weather holds up for this weekend.
 

I see you are out there finding the good stuff again. WTG!! It's about time for me to come down and help you find that buried chest of treasure. I know you will need some help getting it out of there. :icon_thumright:
 

Can you slice me a piece of silver and pass the U.S. buckle? Lunch time...Nice finds....
 

Good score on the silver! I've been waiting for a cut piece for a very long time, but they didn't seem to circulate here at all.

Looks like you also got a musket escutcheon with the tip broken but usually they do not crud up like that. The reverse would say one way or the other.
 

Wtg on the silver and relics. :headbang:

I have found many Spanish, just none that were cut. That said, I have no issue with finding coins whole. :thumbsup:

[/quote That's what I want too there patch.Whole ones!But I won't throw these back either! :laughing7: :laughing9: :laughing9:
 

Like Iron Patch I've found some Spanish silver, just none that were cut. Since coppers are so common here they didn't need to cut the silver to make change. Great find by the way.
