Let's see, I can go shopping and get arrested or knifed, or go detectingOK detecting wins
I wasn't feeling great, so I didn't want to take a chance at being too far from home and go hunting with Dan and the gang. Dan has always said that the weak link gets sacrificed in the woods
I decided to just get in a couple of hours close to home. Hit some cellar holes just up the road, but wanted to venture way out into "boringville". That is the area around old cellar holes that is so far from the hole, that even the original inhabitants didn't go there
It is very quiet and most times you only get lead slugs or shotgun shells. I found lots of those, but did find some dumping areas that most of these targets came from. A few keepers including a scythe, measuring compass, my second, in the middle of nowhere, modern store token (I'll get you Big Y
), a colonial toe tap, an old furniture escutcheon plate, etc... Did get a nice little object that at first looked like a game piece. It did not test as silver but looks plated over another low conductor metal. It mostly looks ike tombac material. I'm now thinking it is a young boy's wax seal. It looks to have had a loop on the top that is missing. I wish I had thought to look through the dirt for a glass insert. That is what I think it is so far. Nice to get out even if it wasn't an all day hunt.

And I will definitely have a talk with the Big Y people about losing their tokens on colonial sites.
