Pewter Anchor + RP, 3 Coppers: 1807, 1832, 1888

[Hunthicks]

Patriot and I got back to last weeks site to see if there was anything left to scrounge up, and there was! We hit all over the place and regridded where the house would have sat multiple times, and Patriot kept picking up the pewters. He got me to check his signal on one and with my settings the iron shank in there was giving me a really bad, practically iron signal. I adjusted my settings and dug a pewter right away! I got another anchor button and the really worn RP, it was quite easy to see the crown right after it was dug but after a brushing to clean it's nearly impossible to see anything, just the faintest outline. Oh well, it counts in my head :P This site was also littered with rifle shells. I dug a couple dozen of them over the past two hunts there!
Goes to show even a site that seems to be drying up still holds the goodies if you slow down! Would be awesome if it were ploughed, but doubt that will happen anytime soon - I'm sure there's lots more left for us there.

Royal Marines, and now you just need to upgrade the RP!


I double dare you to take Ironhorse and myself there! It's a double because it's going to the Patriot too! Pewter buttons in iron... we'll show you how many you missed.

Patriot mentioned you guys wanted to come over, sounds great to me! We were still picking up targets till the end of the day, so I'm sure there's plenty more hiding in there. Hopefully a nicer RP haha.

Very nice bud. Those buttons are awesome. Hope you get one in great condition from that site. Gotta be one there that's decent. Hell Id be ecstatic with the 2 you found. My military button collection is very sad

This was the spot the nearly perfect RP and snake button came out of, so there's a chance there are some nice ones left!

Probably too late now. He gave us the run-around until Spring, and I do understand why he would be worried because he knows what would happen. That being said, the first week it came up, right after the Dragoons and brooch.... I think it was that Sunday IH and I had our best hunt of the Fall so we were pretty happy on the way home we stuck around. But now we suck, so anytime!

I knew you had it in you!
Funny how a minor adjustment in settings can change the the whole chain of events!

I'd love to have a crack at that site, just for my own satisfaction!
Hope to see you posting up some more soon!
Btw that pewter anchor button is so cool

 

[against the wind]

Wow, , I thought I heard a CHALLENGE in there somewhere.

Looks like we could have some snow by the weekend, but it'll all be there in the spring!

The Pewter Anchor Button is Sweet !
Looking at the long range weather forcast I doubt the ground will freeze hard for at least a couple more weeks.

 

[CRUSADER]

Yeap, only got a few of the pewter anchors, various sizes, pretty rare really - congrats

 

[Hunthicks]

Haha, I'm not worried, I've been seeing all the good stuff dug around me for the past few weeks anyway! As long as I'm there I have the chance to get the goodies!

[Hunthicks]

I'm not too worried about the ground freezing yet, but if we do get the snow having the coil an extra 6 - 8 inches off the ground never helps! Temps are supposed to stay up so it might not last even if it does come though!

It's my second recently, hopefully the next one will improve on condition again!

Good looking coppers and buttons. I hope for your sake that land does get ploughed!

Everyone can keep calling it a pewter anchor button, but Marines (British Royal Marines) sounds a little better!
