Today I went back to the farm field to try get #30 copper out of the ground. No luck today.
I did manage 3 flat buttons one of which has a nice silver wash on it. Also a musket ball.
The whatsit I have no idea.....anybody?
Thanks for reading and HH everyone.

Very nice buttons, and that musket ball looks pretty clean! The whatsit looks like it could be the remnant of a spur?

Al I believe the whatsit is the remains of a hay fork. I am sure you will squeeze a few more coppers from that field.

The silver washed one actually had the shank but as I ran some water over it, it fell off. Never had that happen before. I thought spur also but ruled that out because of the v shaped.Originally Posted by Digger_O'Dell
Jeff, the remains of a hay fork makes sense. Hope you're right about the squeezing a few more coppers.
Don, thanks for commenting. Do you think that I might have the only colonial sling shot???
The 29 is the total copper count over the years from this field.
Drew, the targets are getting fewer and fewer.Petrified wishbone?
