The woods and stonewalls looked great until you walked into them. It was 200 yards downhill, across two mushy swamp streams, then up another giant hill until you get to a stonewall lined lane, all of which is covered in prickers, vines, saplings and all other kinds of vile undergrowth. Anyway, we farted around down there for a couple hours and all i came out of the woods with was a 58 caliber fired mini ball and a 1943 King George VI Shilling with a bullet hole in it. We clawed our way back up the hill through all that thick, nasty, prickery, ungodly, stinging horrible mesh and plopped out into the muster field for some easy swingin’. Back up in the civilized metal detecting world, making our way back to the trucks, I heard a little neenie weenie 86 on my machine that almost sounded like the other 4.6 million square nails and other assorted crappola buried in this field, but it just had the right chirp so I dug it and up popped a little wiped 1772 half Reale, I showed my buddy, he told me I sucked and we had a beer with the property owner ( after he made us stack a half cord of wood😅) then I went home and died.
my buddy found some clad and other crap but I didn’t pay attention cuz he had to give me a dollar for finding more coins than him, soooooooo I win again😀👍🏻.
