Took me 13 Hrs to Capture a small Tribe and their Fatty Chief

Hunted fields all weekend, friday..saturday..and sunday...I must have found the most UNproductive field sites in my whole county! There was virtually NO conductive signals. Absolutely some of the worst field sites I have ever hunted. Besides for a few shotgun shells and broken harmonica reeds, what you see in these pictures is ALL the conductive targets I found in 13 hours of hunting field sites where old homesteads once stood. All were on the 1886 map, a few of them were gone by 1914, so I had some pretty old sites.What shocks me most is NO buttons, normally field sites that don't give up coins at least have flat buttons. I don't think I have ever hunted fields all weekend and recovered no buttons.....lol. I have to laugh because I don't know what else to do.

So in 13 hours I managed 4 cents, so I made about a 1/3 penny an hour LMAO.

the indians are 1905, 1903, 1865, and the fatty is a 1863. Got a crotal bell, buckel, clock winder key, small musket ball, and the tiger eye looking thing, no idea what that is. Not sure what the grey/silver colored thing is either, any clues?

So laugh with me at my extremely small pile of conductive targets from an entire weekend of hunting!
