Lucky to be Digging...Getting Targets!

[romeo-1]

This is the worst time of year for detecting in this area. Crops are in and the grass is high. I've got to look for hay fields that have been mowed and hope for the best. Got on one this morning. There were targets at least.

Good to see you got out! Nice crotal bell!

 

[The Patriot]

Yes you are right...the season for grass and planted fields crept up fast....at least your digging still...maybe something nice will pop up..

As long as there are targets like that you have the chance at something good!

I see what looks like the top of a lip stick tube, and I don't see any cuts for that to be a crotal bell, good finds anyhow, and something really good might just pop up.

Nope...a ramrod thimble would have made my day...just a lipstick tube.

I've always wondered what the cylindrical lead weights were used for...loom weights?

Nice hunt. I know what you mean with the high grass. Very frustrating. I like that little crotal bell.

I stand corrected. Do these look similar? My friend found these and they turned out to be fishing net weights.

I have no idea what it is...has two attachment points on the back but I don't recognize the motif.
