Hit a couple well pounded 1800’s sites in the park woods. Extended out from the cellar holes and hit the still dormant briar overgrown areas. Also dug a record number of shotgun head stamps and shell casings.

The Saddle pommel horn was a really deep 34/35, like 12” down. Anyone know how to date this?

The hand forged brass nails sure sounded good, first time finding this style.

Thx!
