And I still have two left feet... :laughing7: at least as far as killer finds is concerned. However, I certainly had the chance and had a good time getting out with some of the local (fairly local) crew, and at least it's a post! (MANY of my hunts this year weren't worth talking about) Ironhorse already wrote out what went on so easier to check his post than for me to type it again.

http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,433731.0.html

My more interesting finds are a cut silver pendant possibly from a 6 pence, center part of a shoe buckle and I have never dug a complete one so was a little bitter over it, couple George coppers, key date 1858 Canadian large cent (would be pretty decent but has a very poor edge), Militia button, Snuff box? (was from an early site and I'll probably crack it open with a hammer ;D) and what at first glance I thought was a British 71st Tombac Officer button (design has a large 7 with raised small 1 and silvered designed edge border) but ended up just being yet another tease for the year. This for the most part is the end for detecting for me for quite a while but there is 3 fields left to hit so maybe, just maybe, something great will be waiting. :thumbsup:

The last picture is all the stuff that got in the way. After I shot the pic I didn't realize I hadn't even emptied my last three days worth, so yes, it was lots of digging!

Still got time for more Great Finds :D
Nice Button and Pendant :o
That monogram set looked mighty familiar,
The wide 'C' with S & I, (I see yours is an L ::) )\
Similar style button shown, I think it's from the Waterbury catalog, someone sent it to me when I was trying to ID a very similar bottle mark :icon_scratch:
Somehow I don't think this is your last dance :wink:

I'll have to say you sure put lots of time in this past week. Some nice old relic's but I know you can still cut a rug before the snow fly's. :notworthy: That pendent is an eye catcher. :headbang:

Btw when I was throwing out trash from the NJ field I came across this blob of copper. I think it looks like a horse head. Maybe from a 19th century chess game? :icon_scratch: Another one for the not junk but whatsit box.

Great finds!

Looks like Winter is closing in on us. :(

It might be it for me too.

What to do for 3 months? :read2: ?
