Woke up this morning and it was 13 degrees. The last thing I was thinking about was metal detecting, but I got an e-mail that some guys were going to a site that had given up some Spanish silver and some other good stuff in the past, so who am I to pass on such an opportunity?

Anyway, pulled one LC and a copper button in 4 hours. As usual, can't make an id (the soil is so bad, I can't even date the clad I pulled). It is really thick tho. One guy said that means it a George I. As near as I can tell, has a right facing bust, but not totally sure. Will look into all that later.

No photo -- its already in the olive oil. In the very unlikely event any detail is recovered, I'll post a photo.

Anyway, it was just nice to get out and find something old this time of year.
