Hello everyone,
This post concluded 21 hours of farm field hunting in Central RI using the Garrett AT Pro (last hunt settings: Pro Mode-zero, iron disc 10, iron audio ON and Sensitivity one bar from max). The series has been quite a rollercoaster of emotions starting with the recovery of a 1783 Nova Constellatio (posted in a previous thread) and ending with Silver baby spoon (engraved December 13, 1892). The Solid Silver Spoon is very dear to me being a very personal item found relic. To think family members cherished this beautiful spoon marking the birth of their child.
Other items included silver and copper coins. An interesting find was a 10 Pfennig German coin in "tough condition", still working on recovering the date. A weird finds were a 1987 Chuck-E-Cheese, 25 cents off a pizza token, a dollar coin and 4 old memorial cents.
The relics spanned from Bale seals, lock, buckles, bullets, Model T radiator cap, water distribution hardware...etc. A few buttons and jewelry items did show their faces to round off a fun time. I have posted many photos of the three day experience.
I hope you enjoy and can “relive” my three day excitement in the field.
Thank you for looking.

What a weekend you had yanking all this wonderful treasure from the field. Amazing relics and coins! What is that "LIBERTAS" holed coin in the very upper left in picture number one? Oh my! I think I can attest to EVERY T-net member that we ALL would have loved to be there with you on these three special days. Well done!
