    Great day of finds

    Those wheats appear to be in remarkably good condition. Congrats!

    Double Seated Day

    I think you’re going to remember that day for just a little while…. Congrats! That one day doubled my seated finds for my entire career.

    Translation help needed!

    I couldn’t make it by the old house site (Targets of Opportunity …) as the crew was working, so I diverted to another site where I have found several coins from the 1800s. I had high hopes for the penny, as it was in the center of a roughly 4 x 4 depression in the woods. Unfortunately, it’s just...

    That moment when you out dig your digging buddy

    Silver quarters are always a welcome sight. Congrats!

    Targets of opportunity and possible Morgan’s Raid connection

    Thanks! This is only the third one I have found. I found one in a fire pit a long time ago and I found an iron one about a month prior to this one. But this is the only brass one I have found, and is in the best condition of my three.

    Strange bullet shape

    It almost looks like the head might have been clamped in a vice - which might have extended the total length from the original specs.

    Targets of opportunity and possible Morgan’s Raid connection

    That looks just like it! There is a broken piece right where the attachment shows on your picture. So the attachment broke off and the centerpiece is also missing but it must be that watch fob. Thanks!

    Targets of opportunity and possible Morgan’s Raid connection

    I was on my way to a place I’ve been hitting pretty hard when I passed by an old house on which I’ve had my eye for a while. However, this time, the doors had been removed and a crew was carrying out stuff and piling it in the yard. So of course I turned around. As I did, I saw a tom turkey...

    Surprise find today!!

    Beautiful! So much better to see that come out of the hole than the deep old cans I find around here…

    half dime

    So it is a half-half-dime? 😄 I can imagine you were disappointed to begin with to see one side wiped out. Then the elation started to creep in as you realized what it might be. Nice find!

    Back out to the pasture

    Looks like you also have a lamp wick base. The last one I found had an 1800’s patent date around the base. See if you can clean up around the base and if there’s any writing there.

    Recent Hunt and a Quick Question

    If it is not a military button, I found this source for helping figure out the date range of general buttons: https://www.daacs.org/wp-content/uploads/buttons.pdf. Section 1.12 has a nice little table based on the shank style.

    Found a nice button today

    Nice one! Tombacs always make me hope there is a coin there from the same time period. Well it is nice to dream about….

    Rock ID - Pegmatite?

    Yeah, AI is dead wrong on that one.

    Rock ID - Pegmatite?

    I would say you are probably correct on the pegmatite. Schist is a lower grade (less metamorphosed) metamorphic rock, and the mica flakes tend to rub or flake off in little shiny flakes. Gneiss is a higher grade (more metamorphosed) metamorphic rock characterized by variations in color...

    Beat Copper coin

    Any detail left on the reverse?

    Harvest time!

    Quite a few of our club members wandered through the second day. I was just a little more persistent…. 😁 I neglected to mention I also picked up a bottle cap still attached to an intact old, large Heinz 57 bottle. It was about 2/3 full of liquid which I thought was water. I didn’t want to...

    Got milk?

    I didn’t know what that was, so thank you!!
