Double RINGS & Clay Pipe With a Face on it

[Whydah]

Hooked up with a local friend who has been wanting to water hunt. He told me that he had a spot that we should try. I took into consideration that I might have been there before. Sure enough, when we got the parking area, it looked very familiar. I suited up, and into the water we went, five minutes into the hunt a ring in the bottom of the scoop. Thought maybe another Platnum for the year, but it turned into Titanium very quickly... Ok still a ring.... About fifteen minutes later another ring, this time YELLOW, I'm liking it, got that stupid monkey off my back... looked like older Gold too... Made my way towards a swim area, and a nice solid signal at neck deep, with the detector stretched out towards the open ocean, I dug very deep, I wanted to get it on the first scoop, bingo a silver quarter, and this odd shaped thing in the scoop.. walked in a little to get a better look, and it turned out to be a Clay Pipe with a figures Head on it. PLease Help me with this one. First one I ever found in water.. Another six silver coins and a lot of sinkers later I was on my way back home with riches from the sea... Turns out that the silver quarter was a Barber that's always a bonus....Thank You Ocean God... Happy Hunting

That pipe is really interesting! Looks similar to the old trade pipes, but I don't think they made them with faces like that.... Substantial find for it's uniqueness alone!!
Of course, the coins and rings are nice too!

Your pipe most likely had a lid, but not sure.

I wonder how old it is and how long it took someone to make, what a spectacular find, way to go!!!

Very neat finds. The pipe does look to be meerschaum as Marc (NB) points out. I have a few I picked up in Turkey, and they true works of art. Congrats on all your goodies.
