Had a few productive december hunts, started out down in SC at my colonial spot, got lots of horse tack and rosettes, drilled shank button, large brass buckle ( help with ID?) and dad got a KG II. hen as is tradition went out with Addam From Addams artifacts and did well, My favorite find was an acorn trigger guard off a contintial rev war musket, and dad got a rare 1866 seated half dime. I think its the philly minted one that they made like 10,000 of but it's holed so we'll never know. :dontknow: 
Then I went to my button hole and found a bunch of staff button, a tintype, an 1861 fatty, a wedding band (my dad got the small one) and a few other odds and ends, and my dad got a kepi buckle to close oujt the day.
Went back to the button hole on the 30th of december, and pulled some more. ( Also a silver thing I can't ID)
Not sure about this, but it seems my dad dug a liberty cap LC?
And today I got a flowing hair Lc! (See other thread)
So i've been having a great time hunting! HH all!

The tintype is actually shown laying on top of a non dug example I have to illustrate size (1/9 plate tin) I wish I dug one in that shape! I'll never know what was on it sadly, but I found it at a civil war soldiers orphanage so i'd assume it was a picture of a kid's parent who was lost in the war. Really sobering.
thanks and HH!
