My buddy and I went to a site of a battle in the war of 1812
We dug up many things from the last two centuries
some grape shots musket balls and small arms fire and I dug two buttons
1 41st reg British button and 1 Royal Artillery button.
Both regiments took part in the battle that took place in these woods over 193 years ago.
I also found three shillings and 1 lg penny.
my buddy also found a piece of a tomahawk.
its great to be able to detect this time of year in the woods, with no Bugs and no leaves and brushes.
