Went to a local "closed" factory this morning from the 1800s.. I knew the place was full of "crap" as I had been there before to check the ground conditions, etc. I don't believe it's ever been detected before (or at least not very well)! There is metal stampings, car parts, iron, junk, cans, crap and everything you can imagine in the ground "everywhere", but, I managed a LOT of good stuff, and some NOT so good stuff too!

This time I went with the intention to hunt the grounds in "old skool style"..

I set the machine on the highest level of discrimination I could, and dug ONLY repeatable strong targets/signals.. (otherwise known in the "old days" as "cherry picken for silver")!

Below is what I found, and no, I didn't stay long enough to see if there was a body attached to the gold tooth & jaw bone!!

Re: OLD SKOOL STYLE HUNTING!

Neat finds -- although I must say that tooth with the meat attached is freaky. Did you have your gloves on when you pulled that out of the ground?

Old skool, huh? I guess you would have to at a site like that.

That tooth is gross. I'm glad you took a picture of it from all angles so we could all see how truly disgusting it is! ;D

OK I'm convinced you just found Jimmy Hoffa.


Now if that is a front tooth then maybe we have the wrong person.


It could be this guy.





;D

WTG Nice looking coins. Too bad the SLQ didn't have a readable date. That's the way I found one once, no date. Still nice to find. I am still wondering about the tooth. Must be an interesting story behind that one.

Great finds Lonewolf. Not to put a damper on your tooth, but since it is attached to a jaw, it obviously did not fall out. You may wish to contact the police. Their could have been someone who has been missing, and the tooth might be able to help. You could be a hero or something in that neighborhood....Lance

That tooth is a bomb find,
I would think about letting someone know about finding that one. Just in case the po po ever came in for a minute they might think it's a trophy from your last job.

You know being a Con and all.

Great finds, I think all your coins have been overshadowed by the tooth, but they are very nice. That tooth is really freaky. I assume your going back.
Congrats Again,

Mike
