Thread: 2 BUCKLE DAY* BRIARY CELLAR HOLE

  1. #1

    2 BUCKLE DAY* BRIARY CELLAR HOLE

    put a 8 hour solo hunt in today at this hole i been avoiding because the grounds are very tough to hunt with all the briars.
    But,i figured let me be patient and see what i can pull outta here.
    2 shoe buckle frames and 2 buttons for the day.
    yup the copper drought continues.
    freakin 1985 clad quarter gave me a glimmer of hope until it surfaced
    not a bad day

    Nice buckles Dave.It does look like tough terrain with all those briers.But they do keep the week of heart out of those sites.
    For every relic that rots away........a piece of history is lost.

    Not a bad day Dave. Couple of nice buckle frames. Hey, find the swampy area there (if there is one) and you may find them complete buckles. But remember, complete buckles are rarer, since most of the guts were steel. You did a long hall day out there. I bet it felt good detecting, no pressure. You should be good for at least 2 days now lol Nice clad quarter

    Yes there's fungus among us! Actually I have a college degree in Environmental Edgeacashun (Parks & Recreation with Env Ed and Outdoor Rec emphasis) I used to lead nature hikes and wilderness trips with younguns' before I had younguns' of my own...

    I'm glad you didn't hurt your White's jacket! It sounds like it made it through?
