UPDATE!! I think I might have found the oldest pewter olive oil cap in the world.


I went back to the park and use the 15 inch equinox Coil and it had me digging deep I did find something interesting but I’m not sure what it is and I can’t find it on the Internet. All I can make out is that it’s French and says A****HE (I think) PUGET MARSEILLE. It was apparently a screw top of some sort and made of what reminds me of pewter. It rang up on a solid 16 at 9 inches and I really wouldn’t dig anything on the equinox at 16 but it was so solid and deep I had to see what it was and this is it. Any help would be much appreciated. Also some weird lead pieces and what nots. One thing I could say about this coil your arms won’t hurting from swinging it but they’ll sure be hurting from digging it.
