Hello All,
Here are the results of our Saturday relic hunt. As usual we found a ton of nails, wire, horse shoes and iron farm junk. But we also managed 22 bullets, some camp lead, three button backs, some kind of brass washer, a pistol nipple wrench, some shoulder scales, some things for musket sling straps, and some kind of buckle. We also found what I believe to be a barrel from a pocket or boot pistol. Not sure but it looks like it to me. And our oldest coin so far. A 1843 8 reales from Republica Mexicana. It is in decent shape but for some reason someone scratched what looks like a A on both sides of it. Anyway thanks for looking. All comments and information are welcome and appreciated.
