Spanish Mountain, lives up to it's name, 2 X 1 reales + rev war button ?

Yes of course ZDD and me.

What a great day it was, well the field was just rolled in red velvet carpet, which is the condition I do require. It could not have been smother, and even though we had hunted this particular field a few (at least 6) times before, I couldn't believe the amount of targets, non-frerrous targets we were pulling, as a guess 40 to 50 targets between us between is in 6 hours. I didn't even want to stop for lunch as Dave had his Silver then

Yes Dave got the silver first, and no less the 7 in total coppers?




The weather was perfect, the conditions were perfect.
What a great freekin day for the the record books.
Finds:

1 Spanish Silver 1726 1 reale
1 Really nice knee buckle
1 REV. WAR. button, possibly Massachusrtetts 4th ? Please help on this one.
More stuff.

Awesome hunt bud! I'm right there with ya on the complete shoe buckle issue. So many frames, but no guts. Killer button! You don't see those posted often. Spanish silver is always a nice touch to layer the icing on the cake. Looking forward to ZDD 's round up and story too!

Sweeeet Finds!! Congrats!

Rick, I kind of agree with you on the buckle , just I would not of felt the need to post it on the boards for everyone to see. Maybe a pm would have been a little classier?

 

[treblehunter]

Nice finds for you and zdd, by the way!

Yeap 4th Reg of Foot makes more sense, maybe time to lay off the boose..

You were probably ok for a couple more drinks because I'm guessing this is what you had rattling around in your brain.
