Hit a nearby cellar hole today and managed to rescue an 1847 Braided Hair from the iron belt surrounding the hole. The LC was very shallow... 2 to 3 inches tops. I didn't get much of a signal but it was definitely a diggable tone. It sounded small and deep...certainly not what you would expect for a copper that shallow. But it was masked by a piece of iron that must have been partially covering the copper.

Still a bit of snow in the woods. Not bad at the site though.

Managed a couple of buttons, ox shoe, ornate brass thingy, lead etc. One of the buttons says " Octagon Soap". That piece of iron was in the hole with the copper.

Came upon a wood frog that was probably as happy as me that the snow is finally melting.

No ticks yet. Hopefully the tough winter did a job on them.
