My first Metal Detecting finds.

When hiking through the woods near my house I noticed a barbed wire fence that was growing through some trees.

I quickly realized that someone had fenced this area off for a reason some time in the past. After some investigation I came upon an old rock foundation in the woods. Later I returned with a friends metal detector and dug my first relics.

I later learned that these items are part of a horse collar and were used to pull wagons.
