    Wow. You found that in one day with a metal detector ? Almost looks like stuff you would find in an old well.

    Thanks for the replies.
    I wish this was one days hunt. It's about 1/3 of the stuff found for the whole month. 7 or 8 different sites.
    Sorry for the fly-bys lately. Been kind of busy. I'll try to do some much needed catching up here soon, and maybe even compete this month. If I don't make it in time, no biggie. Good luck huntin'.

    I know you just missed out on last months polls.....so whenever you can post for August will be fine.
    I will hold off on posting the August polls till you can check back in. No hurry.image
