Yesterday's digs. Hello KG III !

[Donnie B]

Yesterday's digs with Danny LaMontagne (https://www.facebook.com/danny.lamontagne.79) and Brian Bari (https://www.facebook.com/TrooperBri). Everyone had a great day and it was good to be out in the woods. Highlights for me were a KG III and what I think is a brass candle snuffer. Anybody else got any ideas on that piece?582775827858279

I was so glad the rain held off as we were pretty far out in the woods , that spot was good to us now that the ferns are all down and so nice to swing in that area . congrats on the copper Donnie !

Nice digs, can't ID the piece for sure, but guessing you're right about the snuffer.

I'd agree with candle snuffer. Interesting to be two piece with an iron handle. The one I got was like an aluminum alloy that was broken off where the handle started. A Rosie?? Where the heck did Dan take you that had a rosie? lol. That's too new of a spot for him to be at.

That was a great idea to hit that spot now that the ferns are down and it paid off as we all three got a copper. You also got that cool buckle with the stones and your very first Liberty Cap Cent! Congrats!!!! :congrats:

I was swinging along the walls on the way out and got the Rosie. My heart jumped when I saw it come out of the hole and it looked silver. What is it? Is it Spanish? Is it Seated? It's a Rosie, darn it! Is it silver? NO! It must have been lost recently as it was a 2000. Gonna spend it some day! :lolsign:

Snuffer is a cool find! KG and a Rosie don't often show up in the same hunt.

ditto on the candle snuffer, that's the first thing that came to mind when I saw it.. Congrats on the great finds.

At least if it was dropped from another detectorist, it still means they missed that KG3. I always try to carry change with me just so I can verify my coil works If I get any erratics going on. I got fooled, too, with a rosie at the penguin hunt. It was deep and looked like it was different than any other clad rosie. It didn't seem to be part of the planted finds either. I thought it was silver for a while. oh well. 10 cents richer. Better than a zincoln any day.

Good job on the copper....I've yet to find a candle snuffer. :clapping:

[Digger Don]

Very nice finds. Love the detail on the Kg. Very Nice!
