These kind of hunts are fun1.5 mile hike just to get the blood running then dig dig dig until hunger sets in. I thought I had three coppers as the cut thing sounded and looks like a copper.
I haven't cleaned anything, just ran water on stuff.
I've never seen rows of trees like these in our woods. They look on the young side too.
Thank you for looking

Thanks everyone. You know Lodge....I didn't look at that thing closely as I thought it was a horse until you mentioned dog lol I agree that it is some kind of winder.

I agree the watch winder looks like it has a hunting scene on it with the dog flushing out a pheasant or partridge , its a nice piece Drew . that Wood's hibernia has great detail and dropped almost new , you've got a nice older site there . |
