Through the thick of it

[Sniffy]

I don't mean to bore everyone with my posts, but I truly enjoy sharing my finds with people that have the same interests as I. Today I sold my half cent and for some reason I feel bad about letting her go. She had a nice bust. And to top it off I shipped my whites Prizm 3 back to Oregon. (malfunctioning) So, with my head down I took a nice walk with my Bounty Hunter Tracker 2. Fortunately I have the remainings of an early homestead walking distance from my house. This site has given the majority of my nicer findings (including the 1804 half cent) But after extensive research a t the Library, I've learned that there were actually 2 homes on this property. So, in tone mode I rip through briers with my little search coil. Eureka! Another BUTTON!! and then moments later a very strong signal. The 2nd gun shaped object. Mind that these items are on average 8-10 inches deep through roots, so it's alot of work. Sweating and thirsty I track home.

That's an ox shoe.


I'd say you're very close to the second homesite.

What kind of gun do you think it is? Is it really a part to a gun?

These poor oxen must of worked there ways into early graves. The rock perimeter of this property must exceed 20 acres. Thank you so much for your knowledge. I"ll gladly label these as re-box.

They're probably good candidates for electrolysis--they make neat display pieces.
