Hi Guys,
Here's a few more AT Gold finds from the lake bottom. I keep thinking our honey hole is played out but it keeps proving me wrong. There seems to be a never ending supply of musket balls. They appear to be a mix of pistol balls and buck 'n ball shot. The area has a history of skirmishes with the local Indians so I wonder if these date back to that era. Otherwise, someone was engaged in aggressive duck hunting.
Thanks for looking!

Here's a pic of three targets before cleaning:

Here's the total haul including a 14K band and a 1871 Indian:
