Came across a near complete wick feed from an oil lamp today. Usually a sign that an area will produce.

Also came across an unidentifiable disc. I'm getting pretty good at these. It is about the size of a quarter. Pretty sure it is a token. Can barely make out some writing on it. Best I can tell it says WHISKY, so maybe a token for whiskey. Will have to see if I can clean it up.

Two Indian heads today. One is a semi-key date. One cleans up pretty good. Unfortunately the one that cleans up well is not the semi-key date.:BangHead:

Also found a ring. Quick skip of a heart beat as it first came out of the ground with the unmistakable glint of gold. But quickly realized only plated.

Yes, that's the way if often goes. But sooner or later, you get both the key-date in the right condition.

A couple Indians and a token is a good hunt imo! Most of my Indians looks rough too, especially the older ones. Either way I still like finding them. I like your screen name btw.
