Well, the Pequot Indian hunt was a bust for me lol Nothing good to show from it. Dan saved his pride by sneaking in a musket ball last minute :clapping: It was a perfect day too lol But one of the other guys did find a brass point and some more musket balls. Another club member may have found a musket rest. So overall it was a good hunt. Afterwards, we wanted to get back to the spot that gave me the 2 coppers last week and Dan's Vermont baby head colonial coin. Since the first half of the day was not that great, we were going there to redeem ourselves. :angelic: Nope, not for me lol Got some relics, but no coins this time. Oh well, I guess I have to wait until I can have a crack at it on Saturday again. Here's my haul:

No coins, but some nice relics. It was a beautiful day for detecting. :yes: I bet you don't miss the bugs. lol
 
I was going to ask too if those were sunglasses lol

Love the relics as always George. :smitten:
 
not bad for 3 hours of cellar hunting George thumbsup01 the minature pocket watch is the first one i've seen , maybe that second hole we found will produce something next time . weather wise it was a perfect fall day with nice cool temps so just being outdoors is a good time . i'll post my finds tomarro and the picture of your find from the pequot hunt ( coinnut was packing heat most of the day) lol rofl nice finds again G.

Hey you got some watch cases..not bad. A nice day out, with some friends, always a good time. Just need a beer with it and your set. I bet one will fit nicely in that Batman Utility belt you have, you have the perfect pouches just to set one! lol

lol Yeah, I think Dan got a Wheat penny lol I got nothing, not even a Memorial. I found all those at the Pequot hunt and were all returned to the land owners along with all the trash too :happydance01: :happydance01:. That stuff I didn't miss. I figured the next couple of hours at the cellar hole would produce at least one big copper, but not for me :ticked: I am on a one hunt copper drought. I can't stand it already 8/
 
A ONE HUNT COPPER DROUGHT! :shocked04: MAN O MAN! Thats gotta have you waking up with cold sweats at night! :mad:

now that is a good question Sal , the verdict is still out on that one . i have been starring at gun pictures for the last few days with no hits yet . anybody have an idea :huh:
 
is the barrel steel or a white pot metal?kinda looks like both from the pic.see if a magnet sticks to it.if it's steel my guess it's real.if it don't stick then most likely a toy :thinkingabout:
 
I'm thinking some kind of blank gun. It's not steel and is some kind of white metal. But the firing design is way too odd for a play gun. The weight is also very heavy for a play gun. If it is a play gun, it would be old, when they made things heavy and to last lol I wish I could have kept it but that was not the deal :crying02:
