Sat the 14th I went to an old house site I hadn't hunted in a while and dug the stuff in the top picture. Mostly just house site stuff a spoon, a watch gear, harmonica reeds, 3 lead seals, part of a lantern and some other stuff but also dug a type I Williams cleaner and the face to a mid-1800's sportsmans button. Today we went to the same spot we tried last Sunday. Last Sunday I got the stuff in the top row of the 3rd pic. a pack hook, a couple brass rivets and an eagle button. I dug the stuff below that today. 4 3 ring mini's (one is pulled) a couple brass rivets, part of a clay pipe stem, an eagle coat button and a small eagle I with part of a kepi strap still attached.

thanks i'm not sure if it's a fox or dog or whatever either. It depends on where I digging. I used the Cibola a bit today and dug most of the stuff with it. In some grounds it will actually go deeper than my Blue Gray but in highly mineralized soil it won't come close. I've dug some quite a bit of good stuff with the Tesoros. I dug the Texas buckle about 5 years ago at a trashy house site with an old Silver Sabre.

I've had the Silver Sabre, Silver Sabre uMax and the Cibola and all 3 were good machines. The first time I saw a uMax. I thought those guys are going to find anything with those little pieces of crap. I was wrong they went right into the trashy area we had just hunted with our whites and started pulling eagle buttons and hat letters out of the nails and tin.
 
Great finds for sure! Love to see the leather on the button funny how some things last!
 
great finds, love the kepi eagle with the leather!

Yeah we did ok. Dan got a face to a Mass button and an eagle button back and I think Terry got a bullet and a button back. There's still stuff there you just have to work a bit to get it. Yeah we need to get together again for sure.
