[HEAVYMETALNUT]

Todd & me headed off to a new site to start the new year off.was a toasty 16 degrees this morning.Had high hopes walking up the trail and to see the small cellar hole warmed me up real fast.guess my coil stayed cold as It only ended up over a few buttons the whole day.on the way out near the car was a real trashy cellar hole that we spent about a half hour at.that's where I get the letter "R" a key hole plate and a aluminum kids play spoon.Todd got some buttons and the only coin of the day besides my memorial :envious:.
Happy new year everyone!

Nice buttons and a very nice key plate! Anything you can find this time of year is a bonus!

I looked real good .I don't see anything.

how about either side (Left or Right) to see if it may have broken from another letter

So 2014 has started.....and the competition between Todd and yourself continues. Gosh it must have been really cold, 16 degrees....:frozen:.

Really looking forward to your posts and finds of 2014.

dan i looked under a loop and at the top of the "R" looks like a slight rectangular area that had a Braze mark possibly.other than that..nothing else on back nor the sides.what are you thinking this may have been from?

Congrats on the new year finds. 9 buttons to start out the year seems pretty good to me, don't get to many chance to hunt where I can find them Safe & HH

[Lodge Scent]

Maybe not banner worthy but nothing wrong with that hunt !
