You're going to make some nice finds! ( Your "J" is actually an "I" )

What's the STORY?! Found in one spot? One day? Over the course of a year? In an acre or a few square yards? Battlefield? House site? State? Region? NATION?! You're KILLIN' me here! And let's see the other 99+ . . . I don't care if they're cleaned or not! Pretty please? Or is the story elsewhere and I missed it?
