So I rolled the dice today and decided to go East. When I got to my site I tried my luck on the overgrown higher ground. When I found a small shell pile the first coin came up. As luck would have it another coin popped out with in minutes. A few feet away a die came up. It was a cap shoot! My theory is that a few settlers were hanging out there some 300 years ago, eating oysters and shooting craps and the winner lost the coins. Someone must of used perfectly good musket balls to make a pair of dice. So where is the other one?


Last picture show fired musket balls, fishing weight, unknown lead round device with a matching lead cylinder that fits inside (What is it?) and 1899 Barber dime.
