Hey folks, here's my first post here on the forums. I found these artifacts all in one area over the span of a few weeks. The majority of these items were water finds. The items with dark greet patina were unearthed. As you can see, I found a hammered copper ingot. Must have been a sad day to have lost this item. Check out the tinyyyyy point. Note the hand carved beakless loon? pendant. Appears to be gold. Still need to get it acid tested. All found using my Garrett AT Pro and Garrett AT Pinpointer. For size comparison, the large awl in the center is 4 1/4" in length.

I have always said we should invade Canada to recoup the copper and birdstones found north of the Great Lakes. Further proof presented above.

��Awesome finds. Was it a cache or just a prolific site?

Interesting finds and I think two different cultures on same site. Old Copper Culture items and some Fur Trade items.

And all that in just a few weeks? Will really enjoy seeing what all you get out of there. Agree with Rege, quite a span of time there.

The majority of these items were found in a 10 - 15 ft radius.
