Default 1700 and 1800 coppers

From the land of the Bluenose.....a quick trip to Windsor and Makinholes was picked up and we were in the fields a makingholes. Of course no day was complete without a Tim's..even if it is a French Vanilla!<center><img src="<A href="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da22b3127cce8836bb30a05d00000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2 "></center">http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da22b3127cce8836bb30a05d00000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2 "></center>
Soil was just ripe for the picking and easy digging. Makinholes hit one of the biggest musket balls this bouy has ever seen!
After six hours these two bouys were feeling the effect and we called it a day. Here is Makinholes pile of goodies with his oldest being a 1745 Brit copper. Let him describe the rest least I muck it up again.<center><img src="<A href="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da22b3127cce8836bb3ea05300000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2 "></center>src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da22b3127cce8836bb35216800000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2 "></center">http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da22b3127cce8836bb3ea05300000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2 "></center>src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da22b3127cce8836bb35216800000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2 "></center>
My take for the day included a buckle, musket ball, two buttons an 1806, 1815, and 1798 coin although a tad on the toastie side.<center><img src="<A href="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da22b3127cce8836bb3f216200000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2 "></center">http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da22b3127cce8836bb3f216200000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2 "></center>
