    Another Seated Quarter In My Lawn [1857]!!

    Re: Another Seated Quarter In My Lawn [1857]!! UPDATED with another whatizit

    just pulled this creepy whatizit up within 4 feet of this quarter about 7+ inches down (she was deep below a root). If I had to guess it weighs in around ten ounces. I have no idea what it is but looks like a kid with a smoke in his mouth (which may have been there at one point in time). Weird thing is the threaded bolt sticking out the top of its head. May post this in whatizit forum as well for a positive id..

    I think you should go back on the east side of the yard to get the uncirculated stuff!!

    Very cool finds!! Wish I was there.

    Re: Another Seated Quarter In My Lawn [1857]!!

    Thanks Mark! Thats the second one from my lawn. Nothing much exciting since then other than last night I was goofing around and found a UMC Union Shotgun shell (UMC produced shells from 1867-1911, then merged with remington).

    Thanks again for the help with that Ace250 for my project Mark!
