Limited finds, but they're old

Tried a couple fields but the one I was most interested in was a little long, so went back to the two we did last week. Most of my targets (at least the more interesting ones) date mid 1700s, and we were lucky as our friend the Patriot was nice enough to walk right by a good part of the site and stay in his one little spot. You're not that good yet... maybe in the range of the PA bros.

Better finds were the little green Jesus, French bale seals, and George II copper all dating about 1740s or 50s. I don't have any peroxide so the cleaned pics won't be until at least tomorrow. Not as good as last time but certainly enough targets to have a chance.

That Geo. II looks pretty darn crisp! I'd like to walk over a couple more old bale seals. Going back there anytime soon?

Not sure of the metal, maybe brass. It has sharp prongs in the back so was likely on wood. A neat Acadian find.

Will do. The other side has some caked on dirt but looks close to as good.
