Got a new permission and took james along. Didn't have much hope as it is just a random field with no significance. Some colonials nearby and late 1800 houses but nothing standing out. But, you never know!
He snagged 2 coppers, some buttons and a 1943 quarter.
I was able to get a copper wedding band with the gold plated still on the inside but no makers mark. My guess is 19th century, more on the mid to earlier side. As most of the Rings had some sort of Mark right after the 19th century.
This was my first complete, non bent ring.
Also found was a kg2, 1864 non fatty...and my 3rd 1864. Fatty Indian is still on the list! A smith and hyslop cuff button which I couldn't find anything on. A nice sized, hand made and snipped musketball. A messed up smaller tombac and a furniture piece.
My favorite is the ring.
Enjoy and HH
