Ok, here are my finds from 2006 that (mostly) didn't get their own posts. Waiting for a tumbler to arrive, then I'll clean and count the clad, mems, and wheaties.
Rusty stuff:

Before I got my detector, did a little bottle digging and still pick up shards...

You can't find it all without digging it all.

Good luck next season, or next chance out.

I finally stopped keeping everything a couple months ago. Until then, I kept everything but canslaw, pulltabs, and foil. Now the only nails I keep are older ones. ;D

In your "Kitchen Junk" photo, take a look at the back of that spoon. It looks to me a lot like it might be a pattern called "Highlight/Pinch" designed by Russel Wright for Hull. If it is, it'll have a Russel Wright signature and the Hull name marked on the back of the handle. No bad "Junk" if you ask me -- sells for anywhere in the $10 to $35 range.

Thanks, Scott, but nope - it's a cheap knockoff - it says "Cambridge/Stainless/China". ;)

Too bad. That would have been a great find! Still some nice junk though. I especially like the green "5" house number.
