Todd and me went lookin for 2 new sites.we get near 1st site and we hear a voice from above like God speaking "may I help you"? i'm like looking around and Todd see's a hunter up in a tree stand.we apologized and left that area onto next location.
Get down near river area that i thought a site may have been and there she was!
Todd got the coins I got buckles.2 shoe buckle frames,one being pewter, a nice complete knee buckle,a piece of twisted iron and a iron gun hammer.not sure if it's off a pistol or a rifle?.then we decided to go back to a site where I dug a script A artillery button.Todd did well there too.I got the most beefiest crotal bell I have ever dug.even the ball inside is lead or same material as bell.doesn't attract a magnet and no rust at all on the ball inside.
Was a great day,temps were brisk in the morning 28 degrees but got up to about 40 by afternoon

I guess he chose the right camo cuz you didn't even notice him. Idky but those buckles always look like they are something else when you take a pic right out of the ground and they are filled with the dirt.

Very nice buckles and crotal bell Dave. Hopefully you figure out what that hammer fits. Careful out there. Trespassing and poaching does happen in the state a lot since we're so small.

Nice looking finds Dave. I would have jumped outta my boots to hear a voice coming from above.

Got this from the CT DEEP Website:

Sunday Hunting Prohibited - Possession of hunting implements on Sunday in the open is prima facie evidence of violation. Sunday hunting is allowed on licensed private shooting preserves when the operator has permission from the town.

Prima Facie Evidence of Hunting - Possession by any person of a loaded hunting implement while at or entering or leaving an area where a reasonable person would believe the objective was to take wildlife. Except that a person may, one hour before sunrise during the regulated deer and turkey firearms hunting seasons, be in possession of a loaded rifle or shotgun provided a live round is not in the chamber of the rifle or shotgun.
