Sunday was a beautiful day for relic hunting and I spent about 3.5 hours at a site I have been hunting for close to 20 years. I have found a ton of stuff here - well over 200 buttons including over a dozen military, large cents, IHPs, capped bust silver and a lot more. But good signals are getting hard to come by these days,so I was happy to get what I got.
When stumbling around in a plowed field, one must keep their eyes open for these things...
It has been a above average year for a person who doesn't focus on looking for points. This is my second one in a month.
While the point was the highlight of the day, this little lock was an interesting find. It has been identified as a dog collar lock. Both sides have a dog head on a button that must have been the "key" to the lock.
Here is the group shot for my Mother's Day hunt. I was happy that 3 of the 4 buttons had something on the face, including the CW Infantry button which must have been in contact with a piece of iron for a long time.
Saturday was a cold blustery day. After doing chores and errands for most of the day, I walked up the street to the neighbor's house for a 1.5 hour hunt. The highlight was a two cent spill with the two oldest coins to come out of this yard - 1906 IHP and a 1910 Lincoln.
Here is the group shot for this short hunt.
Thanks for looking, good luck in the field and stay safe!
