Hello all!

I got out for a 5 hour hunt today... and I was in a 10:blackeye:100 spot all day... Once I found a nice big button and I kept getting decent to great signals and stayed working that area...

The Button that started it all... was at the base of a small tree... 5-6 down...

Not long after that 12/26 @ 5 on a pathway... (Small button in totals picture) Treble Colour Gilt writtin on back...

about 2 hours into the hunt... crazy signal... that mostly said 10/31, but went from 1/46 to the jumpiest signal I've ever seen... and it was 2 down... I thought it was junk... but in my head was Coinnut telling me to dig it like it was colonial... after all you are next to a 1705 Tavern...

Does it get any prettier than this :huh:

I did a realy light water toothbrush rinse... that applied some Renaissance Wax... She is SA-WEEET ! :-)

30 minutes later... I got a nice 8/24 9/24 on a section walked to the house... 5 down... I think if I do anything to it... all will be lost.... Looks like 1862... She is a fatty...

My last target was only a few inches down as well... #2 Crotal Bell...

I don't oftern hunt colonial sites but I sure would like to dig up one of those buckles. They are so cool looking. Congrats on listening to coinnuts little voice in your head, paid off alright. Crotal bells are always nice to dig.
