hey there diggers!
I was out in the rain detecting yesterday for a few hours.
At the end of it all I was truly a soggy bottom boy, covered in mud and soaked to the skin! I was rewarded with some of the typical finds that is expected at most of my early 1800s sites...some tokens and such.
My ship didn't come in with the pair of Ships Colonies tokens, a very toasty Self Government & Free Trade (1857), and an even toaster French cinq centimes( my second this year!).
Hoping for better finds next time at the end of a rainbow and be singing You Are My Sunshine!

Nice saves. You are right that the chemicals in the soil sure beat the crap out of copper. Dug with the bouys in PEI many a time. Ever try Osprey Point?

Well, anything pre 1900 is a happy find in my book.

Last time out I got wet and was rewarded with 3 balls of foil and a shotgun shell.
That Ships Colonies on the left might clean up.
