Got out yesterday morning with my son and long time hunting buddy for a few hours.
It was windy and overcast and actually quite chilly.
We hunted an old home site we had hunted a good fourteen years ago. We where told that a local had been hunting since we had hunted it but, we knew there still would be things still left to be found.
I managed another IH a 97, three wheat's (26,39,41), a round ball, two small flat buttons (both back marked) and a neat true glass magnifying glass. I through the two case pieces away as it was broken/rusted away.
My son managed a nice 49 Rosie, two wheat's a (30, 51) and probably the neatest find a very large flat button (one of the largest I have seen dug) with a floral engraving on the obverse.
My buddy found some coins and some buttons as well but, I forgot to get a picture of his finds.
We all dug a lot of junk including plenty of those darn paper shotgun caps.
Here are my son and I finds for the day and a close up of my lone Indian.

Thanks for looking and HH all.
