A few finds from today

[martygene]

Got out with my buddy, Mr. Fox, and I got a few nice finds. We were in an old house that is on the 1854 map. A small buckle, probably horse tack. A thin spoon or fork handle. A very small button, an 1893 IH and a cool button from Benedict & Burnham company with 4 bees on it. Here is a link to read about Benedict & Burnham that started in 1812.

Detecting was a challenge as they had an electric dog fence which caused the Deus to be very chatty. I usually run in 12K but had to use 18K some of the time and 4K as well.

You did well! Any hunt that produces at least one keeper is worth it!!!
