Great fines. You must have been at it most of the day. I seen a Lenawee County Dog License in your finds.
yeah I put in a good six hours probably. Enough so I was a little sore today :)

yeah the cap grenade is sweet and in perfect condition, I plan to buy some caps and try it out. I have another one I found a couple of years ago but it's damaged.

thanks Mike, the RR tag was definitely the highlight of the day and I found it right at the end. The two sash buckles were only a few inches apart so I'm hoping that the matches are still out there.

Thanks! I love it too, it's actually in great shape and I plan to use it as a butter knife. I've found a lot of silver plated silverware but this the first one I ever considered reusing.

This is the kind of treasures I like to unearth! I love the 1921 Dog Tage and baggage tag. Really great old relics. I found a perfect cap bomb about three years ago but when I was showing my kids what it was I dropped it and the tail broke off...doh! I have since crazy glued it (8P)

Thanks D! I do have a huge collection of things partly because I have a hard time throwing things away. I have a couple of display cabinets, trunks, totes and containers separating things. Other than giving some things away, the only finds I've ever sold are about $800 worth of gold a few years back at Christmas time bc we were a little short.
