Nice finds, Bobby! Sounds like the "old homestead" is potential for many more finds.

Bobby - Watch a movie called October Skies - they use numbered tags like you found for checking in & out of the mines. So its hard to tell what it was used for in your area.

Cool finds - HH

It's not a problem man, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hate not being able to hunt at the moment. I hope once the season starts up again for you that you get mega finds!

Great finds, but just because you found an old Indian head doesn't mean the house had to be built at that time, it could have been in circulation for fifty years or so. Im not trying to get you down on the site, but you have to take that in to consideration. Your site may be older than that, but from the finds you showed you might have been right with your first assumption. All the luck and HH.

I know what you mean, but the tokens have to date to the early 1900's and i found other junk items that probably date to that point in time too...i looked at a 1908 map that didn't have the house as a mark on it, but i wouldn't be surprised if it was built shortly after
