Went back today to see what I have missed on the lot. First dig gave me the most shocking find EVER !! I dug up an artificial leg !!! Thank God no one was attached to it.

After that, things settled down to the usual hunt. My hunting buddy found another Peace Dollar.

That makes six for him so far.

I did get a wide variety of finds. I did find a foreign coin made into some kind of pin. Also a neat Technical Engineer pin. Also found some kind of Japanese/China coin with a round hole in the center. Also a Mercury Dime and silver Roosevelt Dime. All in all another good hunt at the lot. Till next time. Happy hunting !!!

I will withhold my leg joke since everyone else beat me to it. Great finds. That leg would make for a great conversation piece if you have a display case big enough for it.

You can imagine digging the corner of it and trying to pull it out of the dirt. Wouldn't budge. Dig a little more. Same results. Finally getting enough dirt removed to break it loose and pull it out of the dirt and realize what it is. FREAKED ME OUT !!! Couldn't figure how to put in my finds apron.:laughing7: Didn't even want to handle it. Just big TRASH !!!
