Well, today was pretty much a bust. Clarence and I were on our own today. We spent the morning on a huge field near a very important archaeological site. We had great hopes of finding something fantastic but had to be content with greenies, loom weights, a wall hook, a dinger for a bell, a thimble and doo dads. I found two different key hole face plates which are kind of neat. This week I have found three of them and they might look nice in a display case with the old key that Clarence found this week. Clarence had several greenies and we each found a ton of bullet casings and shotgun shell parts.
Correction from yesterday: When I wrote Clarence's finds from yesterday, I didn't notice the container that he kept his better finds in. He had a 1817 six pence, a hammered silver coin, a 1945 six pence and a pair of legs. What? Yes, he found the bottom half of a statue showing only a pair of legs in a sitting position. We would like to say they were from an old Roman statue of a famous sculptor...but we would be making that part up. It was definitely something different.
Until tomorrow....
