I have only been hunting artifacts for 1 1/2 months. I have been fortunate to make some great finds in a short amount of time. The off-center Snyders would be considered my best due to size and rarity of the find in SWPA. The one on the right side would be considered my heartbreaker. The material is translucent with a red lightning type line from the top left to bottom right side.
Like the idea Greg and can't wait to see what everyone posts.
My best find of 09 has to be my Effigy Pipe that I found in April since it is also the best find of my 44 years of collecting.
My heartbreaker for this year is this half of an etched Shell Gorget. This came from the same site as the Pipe and I have seen a few of these from this site in the book about the excavation did there years ago and I'm sure this piece would have had two holes drilled in it for suspension.
"Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends."
Nice Thread. My best piece of the year has to be this Fort Ancient knife. The heartbreaker would have to be the Cobbs with the tip gone. Nice pictures, & good luck everyone.
I didn't find a whole lot compared to most of you, but I had a great time looking and learning. My Etley to me is my best and this needle tip would of been the one out of all my brokes I would like to have seen. take care and good luck to all... JYD...
I haven't really been hunting allot this year to show any heart breakers that are worth while. Back in April I found a rock that I had dreamed about for years, since then I have concentrated on metal detecting, the geekier of the two hobbies for sure. I wear my hat low, but like hunting arrowheads, you get the bug!
