Hi all,
This site (corn field) is unlike any I frequent. I've spent many hours hunting there and have yet to find a large copper. I found a nice 2 cent piece a few weeks ago and MANY items from 1860 to 1930. The 7th fatty from this site was made into a washer of some sort. There is one area of the field that produced colonial cufflinks and an oxknob...but, there is a very specific history to this field....and it's not colonial.
Notes on this site-
1-not one modern coin, and only a few modern items.
2-glass shards and pottery all over
3-19th century nails everywhere.
4-field is 12 acres...odd size in these parts.
5-Dirt is the most mineralized I've ever encountered.
6-Best looking field coins I've ever seen around here.
The wheats are all 1920 or older except one late wheat found in the adjacent property. Oh, and NOT ONE SILVER! :needadrink:
Thanks!
