A return visit...

[K1DDO1979]

It’s been awhile but I finally went out on a hunt. I went near home back a walking trail that about 45 minutes back is a old foundation. I was there once before years ago and had some luck so it was worth one more journey back. I hit it hard and besides a few relics it was pretty quiet. In the end I did get two finds that made it worth the trip. A nice shape 1816 upper Canada sir Isaac Brock token and best of all I think is a giant jaw harp. I’ve dug others but not near this big. Thanks for looking! [emoji16][emoji106]

Neat finds! Must be a bass jaw harp (if such exists). All I have found have been the same size and much smaller. I like the Brock token. Looks in good shape.

Yup it is the base of a jaw harp. Biggest one I’ve dug. I’ve found a few complete ones but mostly just pieces! [emoji16]

that harp would have gave a mighty dang twang
I like the token too
I can't wait to get out digging soon

Yep ...should be out this week for a scouting mission and hopefully finds too!
I'm sure you're glad you didn't " stay the blazes home" yesterday...I'd be back on that site, lots more potential there, great timeframes for a killer find!
