What A Difference A Day Makes

steelheadwill · Mar 21, 2011

Feels great to have a sunburn on my face from yesterdays sunny & 60 degree digs.
today brings 30 degrees & snow.
Called off todays hunt.
got some pix that didn't make yesterdays post,
Iron first, a double bitted Axehead (which read 2-36 on my Etrac :icon_scratch:

I don't think it's bronze age :laughing7:

)
& horseshoe, anyone know what the other item is ?
found near a well.
Brass & Copper next, here's over $70 scrap, that big one's about 25 pounds.
Last a whatsit, leather with thin copper sheet, horse armor

found near collapsed 19th century barn.
Thanks for looking & HH to all :icon_sunny:

I feel your pain Herbie. We broke records up here the other day for warm temps, and now its snowing. I hate March. To me it's one of the worst month's up here.

Pretty sure your last pic is whats left of a head gasket from a flathead engine.

Your iron whatzit could be the "thing" you hang a pot on and swing it in and out of the fireplace.

That's funny Herbie,
I have dug those gaskeyts too, not knowing what they were. Good to know now.

The assortment of relics still amazes me Herbie. When you go hunting, I 'm sure you never know what centuries will be represented in your finds. Very nice. Any Skeeters up there? HH, Quindy.

Nice relics...I stayed indoors yesterday...supposed to snow again here wednesday night,gotta wait for the snow to melt some more.The only good part is i get better signals when the fields are wet.
