Got back out with Gary back up to the sites we hit a few days ago working a different wooded stone walled field.Gary got 4 coppers.
I got 1 copper from the field my 1st 1783 nova constellatio! yay! |:cheering: too bad it's wasted :thumbsdown: :crying02: dug a few pewter buttons, a lead bag seal and the shoe buckle frame,then a tongue & chape from a different shoe buckle.and a lead whizzer or whirligig with the 2 holes.nope it's not a button
headed back down to the cellar hole around the lip again.got a nice signal under a rock again.pry the rock out from the ground and another copper a shot one too.i can just see a neckline on the bust oh well.then the last target was a flat piece of brass in the lip of the hole.so I thought.cleaned it up and i can make out lines & light numbers.a colonial ruler :confused:

Great hunt, Dave! Congrats on the coppers and relics! I think the colonial ruler is way cool! What a wonderful piece of history.

What's the silver eagle thingy in the last photo?
