Well got out with hunthicks and another detectorist for what may be the last hunt of the year if we get the snow or a big freeze…Went to the site where I managed a spanish silver a few weeks back and first signal out was a Large cent…finds continued to come in, many in the form of buttons, but looking at hunthicks Navy button I was right to dig them…As most know myself and Iron Patch have a friendly IRON WAR thing going on to continue producing some nice old Iron… Well my first iron find was and old Iron or ironing clothes… not quite what I was looking for but figured my chances were low to come up with something…Found a nice old wolf's/fox head, Bank of Upper Canada token, a bird band which I will track down later tonight…an old button with the cloth still on the back, a tombac thimble and a acorn crotal bell (only my second one found)…Then we head out to try an old foundation the farmer mentioned to us and found some odds and ends like a musket ball and a few buttons and it was time to go…well if you know me, I'm always the last one out of the field and my very last signal of the day near the junky foundation gave me that distinct sound that I should dig…it was the sound of a cannon ball….I was right! Your next move IP….
