    The pay off!

    After yesterdays hunt at the old farm and my ears ringing from all the trash I decided to hit a piece of property from the 1800s that grew over with trees and now has been cleared for building. Spent 2 hrs and came up with lots of mason jars, a metal button that says "Black Button" on it and this 1824 LG. What a find. Gonna hit is again tomorrow with a friend.
