Cold Connecticut

[del]

I haven't been out in weeks , work has been busy and I (literally) have been doing lots of mechanical work on my jeep . So it was extremely good to just get out and swing the coil again , just a half day hunt and it was unusually cold in the "constitution state" , we hiked out a good mile or more to return to a site that was pretty good to us a couple of years ago . it was really quiet , My friend Rick scored a few buttons and iron shoe buckle frame , i did get a very large iron shoe buckle chape and the find of the day was this decent looking Connecticut copper .
get out there and dig something!

Very nice, Thanks for sharing, It seems like often the best trip to a particular site is the first trip!

Great find Dan. Most excellent my friend.
Tim, Alec and myself are heading out in the morning to try a new early 1800s home site not far from our " Button Field " .
I surly hope "That I get out there and dig something"

I love how a short hunt for you is half a day :lol:
Nobody is as dedicated...and it paid off. Did you know it was a copper when you dug? I used to know pretty accurately when one was under my T2 but not with the nox, it's always a surprise.
Congrats!

Drew it was a solid 95 on the deus , a very fine almost horizonal line on the xy screen so it was either a copper or an oxknob

Is that Connecticut #299 in the last 15 years? :rofl:
