3 days in the field, a whole tribe of indians, and nice relics

[Goes4ever]

This is from 3 days in the field, lots of hours on two productive field sites I found. I dug 14 indians with 1867 being the oldest. A ton of early wheats, including 1909 and many teen years. Found a nice assortment of buttons, buckles, 4 marbles, an old bottle that was unbroke by the plow, a real surprise. Even got a creepy glass doll head....lol. I spent quite a few hours on these two sites and literally dug EVERYTHING above iron. I got a huge scrap pile of brass, copper, and lead, but it is basically free money as I will separate it into buckets and turn it into my local recycling center. I normally avaerage around $100 plus a yr on just turning in my scrap metals from the fields.


I dug a ton of nickel signals and even more high tone silver range signals, but it was just not meant to be, it was an all penny fest, no silver, no old nickels

Man it blows me away the color variations on those indians when you see them all side by side like that. Awesome treasures! Were there a lot of tabs or what was it giving you all the nickel signals you said about? That doll head.......

That's not a tribe, it's a nation! WAY TO GO on some very nice recoveries. I always love to dig IH's.
Any idea what kind of buckle that is on the far right in the 1st photo? Horse tack?
