Hello all.
Cold and windy but dry was the weather, with cloud blocking out the Sun. When it occasionally broke through, the warmth was well received. Spring is just around the corner! I managed about 2 hours on Saturday and another hour or so on Sunday, but this session was cut short to go and view a 1972 Morris Traveller I'm thinking of buying. So, working over some local pasture and whenever possible keeping my back to the chilly breeze, I was able to immerse myself in the mid to late 1800's. I know it is not everyone's favourite period of history when it comes to finds, but I don't mind as I don't have to travel far and there is a chance for something interesting..... and silver.
Did well for bits and bobs and odds and ends with buttons, coppers, and old makers plate, bullets and silver tube....
Many thanks,
