    Sundays NH field trip

    sunday morning todd & Myself headed up to NH. a 3 hour drive to meet Dominique & her boy friend Mark for a colonial field hunt.
    They are also members of our White's focus group and very nice people.
    Everyone did fairly well.I got my (yes Dan & Todd) 2nd copper!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a beat up matron head.
    a 99% complete shoe buckle.some other type of buckle that I hope Dan will comment on as to period and use.
    a couple buttons and hours of good detecting with some great friends!
    then on way home the toll was 50 cents.handed the lady a $1 and got this cameo proof state qtr back in change!

    At least the back of the matron is in fair shape and the buckles are complete. I saw parts of Dominique's video from Fb and it seemed everyone did well with the coil...while in a field site.

    Dave, what's missing on that buckle? Are those inner parts of the chape supposed to connect? Looks like you have a fun and productive trip! See you on the 3rd.

    Very nice Dave. Watched Todd's video and looked like all of you had a great time. Nice to do some open field swinging every now and then as opposed to hacking through the briars.
