Had Three Visitors this Weekend and one of them was Francais

[soupie]

Started out the weekend on Saturday with a hunt with Mark,a fellow tnetter from the northern part of the state...we got in about 4 to 5 hours of hunting...Was a fairly slow day at the old Ghost Town..Mark did manage a nice old copper ring,and I recovered an IH and a few Flat Buttons...

Sunday I started a morning hunt with Matt W,another fellow tnetter from the north...I scored early with another IH and shortly there after I unearthed a large silver coin...turns out to be a Louis Philippe I 5 Frank I believe,no year visible yet...
we were joined mid morning by Mark...

We hit several sites...to include a ghost town,oneroom schoolhouse site,and a former homestead,all fields now..

These were the items of interest recovered

Mark
Homemade Copper Ring
Gold Plated Ring
1 or 2 IH one was a 1865
Spoon Parts
Decorative Copper
Small Buckle





Matt W
IH 1892
Rimfire Shells

Not bad at all Scott. Looks like you made a couple of new hunting buddies. And that tops any find.

Nice haul!

The ring might have come off a candle stick holder. 5th pic down http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,26426.0.html
