Hunted this site pretty hard earlier this Fall. The field has since been plowed, so took my New Blisstool detector to the area where a hotel used to stand. It is literally carpeted with nails. Not the best place to try a new detector for the first time, but it performed well. Pulled some interesting relics from all the junk. A neat small brass bell, a couple of harmonica reeds, a bent up suspender hook, severl Levi style brass buttons and half a lead filled brass rosette. I then crossed the road to an area that is pasture where a doctors house once stood, as well as a couple of stores. Dug the melted lead, a brass shoe toe tip, another part of a harmonica and the best find there yet, an 1856 0 seated Half Dollar. First one of those I've ever found since I started detecting in 1979. Think I'm going to like my new Blisstool for relic hunting.
