I got out with Noah Saturday for an abbreviated hunt. First hole of the first yard. Bam, 53 Franklin!!

I dug this Saturday at an1880s house. I had no idea what it was ,Everyone I showed it to thought the same thing, a Harrison campaign button. I looked it up and yep there it was. It doesn't show up well in the photo, but I was sure I saw Britannia on the reverse. Dell suggested it may be an early...

Friday, Noah and I hit a house in the afternoon and Dug these: Yesterday morning, Alec, Noah and I went back to the cornfield that we've been hunting. Things are definitely slowing down there, but we did manage a couple more buttons each. We decided to try another old brick home that we drove...

Saturday morning, Noah and I stopped at the 1833 field for about an hour an a half before we started door knocking. It's starting to slow down and only dug two buttons this time. After that, we headed out to do some door knocking. had no luck, nobody was home at most of the farm houses...

Four weeks ago, Noah and I stumbled onto an 1833 cabin site in a corn field. In two short hunts and 2 all day hunts we have pulled out an 1829 half cent, an 1875 shield nickel, a 1906 Indian and 79 buttons. My question is this, why would one cabin site produce so many buttons. i'm sure this...

Saturday morning we headed out for another 5 hour hunt at the cabin site. It had rained for the past three days, but the field was surprisingly not bad at all. Probably due to the sloping hill that the cabin was built on. We took a couple of local friends out there with us this time, Tom...

We were out yesterday door knocking farmhouses when one of the farmers told us about a site in one of his fields that had a cabin on it in the 1830s. He had us follow him about a mile to the spot and told us to have at it. Although the corn stalks were about a foot tall, we managed to detect...

My son dug this at an old brick farm house. The owner said it was part of a fort in the 1830s. There are no visible markings and it's kind of crusty. Any guess on it's age and what it might be made of? Thanks

I was finally able to get Digger Al out for a day. We met up with Noah, hit a couple of houses in town and then spent the rest of the day hitting farm houses. In town I dug a 1904 barber dime, a tiny sterling ring and my first Indian of the day. We had an usually great day at the farm houses...
