Managed to get out for awhile today. So, I headed up to some of my cellar sites. Only today I ventured far into unmarked territory. I found a couple new sites. ALOT of targets, not pictured are the tons of oxe shoes, horseshoes, nails, 2 oxe knobs, brass bell, bridal rosette, and other brass whatsits. But did manage to retrieve this nice gilted button and suspender buckle. Cant' wait for the big thaw, these sites I have not detected without at least 4-5 inches of snow on top of them, SO i'm curious to see what kind of targets will be revealed.

It will be great to see what you can pull from those sites once the snow melts. Cool finds!

Yeah I just realized that. This one is pretty cool, I think it's a civil war veterans, it actually has the date on it. 1859, SO thats very cool...I just read up on it a little bit and they manufactured this paticular suspender buckle for the soldiers. So i guess this is a military find. Pretty neat.
