Went in the Woods Today

[Tested]

Got out for a few hours today with DGNBama. We went where we believe some old mining houses once stood. There was very little left of the houses just a a few scattered bricks but we did come across some foundations from the actual mining operations. Anyway on to we found DngBama came out the winner today with 2 coins a 1944 filipinas one centavo, and the oldest coin 1854 Napoleon III Empereur, he also found 1 miners tag and a Brass buckle. Myself I can't complain Coins I only found 1 Wheaties can't read the date, 2 miners tags, and an identical Brass buckle. As far as our scrap we did real well 12.5lbs of copper and 5 lbs of brass. Hmmm maybe put our scrap money towards a couple of Sunray Pinpointers or a couple of good Tumblers for cleaning the clad.

Miners tags are always an interesting item to find at mining towns.

Dagnabit....Let me think on it,,,btw sorry for being so long getting back to you, packing for a move,,,and reading the Forum, LOL...

If I bought your buckle, I'd need to modify the gunbelt I'm making, on the other hand a little modification is good for the soul...

Could I ask you for a price on the buckle, that is if you would want to sell it inexpensively?...

Thanks

God Bless
