Partial weekend at my colonial site....glass, ceramics, metal, etc.

Hey guys, thought i would get out this weekend & do a little screening/detecting at my (permission) colonial site, cut short due to heat Anyhow, i ended up with a decent assortment of stuff. I actually really enjoy the ceramics about as much as the rest of it, so many varieties of English, Spanish, French & very crude

This is some killer stuff! NW Florida sure knows how to please its relic hunters in a Colonial way. The cufflinks would make my year. The pottery and pipe bowls are always welcomed in my collection. Oh man! Florida!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! Fantastic finds! I had no idea NW Florida had so much Colonial history! Can't find much like that here in NE FL. Jealous!!

 

[joeyfresh]

Nice finds. Nice shards, pipe bowl and stems. Are you in a trash pit? Are you digging in a field or a ravine? Do you have any pics of the site?

 

[tokens70]

What an enthusiastic reply!!! Thanks Kirk

Thanks Premierjet & Joeyfresh also Pensacola was settled in 1559, but St. Augustine is the oldest permanent settlement. Premier, have you ever tried Fernandina beach in NE Fla.? I used to live in Jacksonville & i would occasionally go there to hunt, some nice early stuff there too Joeyfresh, a good percentage of the stuff i have been finding is from trash pits. Its not a field or ravine, but a private lot with a house on it. Dont have any pics yet. Thanks again everyone
