2015 was a good year. I'll post a yearly recap in the coming weeks (I'm lazy with that stuff lol). Anyways I got out a few more times and found a few more relics. Childs shoe buckle chape, a silver Rosie (first silver since August), some 1820's spoons and a weird Japanese 10 Sen token or some sort. I don't know what that coin was doing here in the Southern Rhode Island Woods. Hmm anyways happy hunting!
