I had a chance to search a large cornfield Sunday (I barely dented it!). It POURED in Ct Friday and I was afraid I might sink into the field never to be found again! Lucky the weather Sat and Sunday was dry and in the 70's and the field was great.
My best find was a KG III - 1775; (may be a counterfiet re the size & weight) but the details were fairly good.
My first target was a '36 merc. I walked out into the field, fired up the SE, dropped the coil and walked about 10 feet - bam! Good sign or bad sign? Ever find something right away, then not find another darn thing worth mentioning?
Also found a musket ball, a pistol ball, a religious medal, a small flat, part of a small key, part of a small box lock marked "C P" and a small rivet thing with a star on it (any idea what that might be?)
Thanks for sharing. Bruce
