March 27, 2016 – I got out for a quick two hour hunt before Easter dinner at the field where I found the 8 Reale last weekend. Spent the morning gridding a small area and came up with 4 more buttons, KGII 17?0, 1853 dime, ball and spoon handle. I also found a deer shed.
Still pulling the old coins I see - very nice! Bet you'll find lots more too. Congrats!

Nice to pull another silver from that field. I have yet to spot a deer shed even tho I have a family that live in the woods somewhere behind my house. I cant tell you how many times Ive seen deer scat in the woods.. just never an antler.
very nice !! I think someone has a new field to grid outThe two pre revolutionary war coins show a lot of promise !!

I couldn't think of the name of that style button. Thanks! It's my first blowhole and I didn't realize how old they are.
Same here, lots of scat but never any antler sheds until Sunday.
Thanks Dan! I think it was a small camp. I'm hoping to get a full day at it next week.very nice !! I think someone has a new field to grid out
Thanks! The dime didn't fit the time period of the other finds, but I'll take it!
Looks like ya got a nice hot spot there. Love the blow hole button!

Excellent Brian! Definitely more gridding in your future there. Nice early pieces and the button looks quite old.
