Went on a 9 hour scouting trip through the woods looking for three home sites. Only found one. My first signal was a 1880 Indian lots of junk later got the 1881 then the 1884. I detected the site for about 3 hours and stopped counting holes at 200. There are not stop signals I got a good signal right next to a old cedar tree and out popped a piggy bank Pat. 1916 on side but just my luck empty lol. On the way out I got the Egyptian looking head. Not sure what it is. I did find one more site on the way home off of my 1877 map, only found a spoon markers Rodgers and bros. but only dug a couple signals. Was hoping to get some older finds but it gave me a good workout. HH!

I believe your piggy bank is actually an old flashlight. The slot is where the on/off switch would have been. RC

I'd sure like to see a cleaned up pic of that Egyptian looking mask ! have you been able to determine what it's made of yet?
and it is indeed a great looking site !
(You might want to rework your title to read King instead of Queen - pretty sure that's "Tut.")

I agree with Argentium...don't know his sexual preference, but he probably wasn't a queen, lol. Looks like lots of targets, so more than likely you're the first there. You've got the screamers out of the way now, so the deep hidden ones are waiting for you to come back. Good luck!
