Found over a Foot! No Kidding!!!

[Baldingboy]

Well, here is the culmination of a couple of hunts. I removed the really junky stuff and only included the stuff that was mildly interesting to interesting.




See the foot. (I did find something over a foot...I just don't remember what it was!) :P


I found this on the edge of a yard that dropped off steeply to a retaining wall. It was 'only one' of a handful of silver coins that I have ever found, and a HALF DOLLAR to boot!!! I was super stoked!!! Mastereagle was with me and watched me remove it from the plug. He is currently seeing a psychologist over the event.











He was actually happy for me and looked kinda like this when he said "Congratulations":





Here are some other miscellaneous things that I found:

I'd like to know about those tack looking thigs too...I find them a lot around homes, mainly right up next to them. They aren't pointed, they haven't been hit on the head (the thin soft copper would show a hammer mark), and they are all bent in the same spot at the same angle. I get frustrated when I find them because I can't figure them out. I found some this past weekend at a house built in the mid to late '40s...brick house, shingle roof.

Great finds, BB! No doubt about it, ME almost lost all control when you dug up the Walker. Can't say I blame him!
