    Seated - Buttons - Buckles

    This is a from a couple of hunts, one at the golf course, one at the copper field and one from a field where I had gotten my 1st LC.

    The seated is a 1891, well worn. This I got this AM along with what I think is part of a conestoga bell.

    The wheats and the buckles came from the golf course. The two buttons came from the copper field along with the musket balls.

    The wind was a whipping this morning and my toes and fingers were tingling.

    Thanks for reading and HH everyone.

    Don't know how many detecting days are left so had to go, no matter the weather.

    Couldn't see anything....rats. A find with a date is always the best.
