I had a fun day Saturday with my buddies Chris & Chuck. We searched again for my 6th great grandfather's home but did not have any success. We ended the day at a site I've been to many times & always produces something. I found a beautiful, large brass skeleton key, an 1817 Large Cent, a 1900 V Nickel & some other neat relics. The V Nickel still has some "silver" intact, very unusual, almost looks like it was plated. We had to drive back in a snow storm, that was quite a ride! Thanks to my buddy Chris for keeping it together in the less than favorable conditions! 1_key.webp2_lc.webp3_v.webp4_butt.webp5_stuffs.webp6_arr.webp

I’d say that’s a unbelievable day! I love everything you found beautiful skeleton key with a nice big tooth. Large cent which is still a huge bucket lister of mine and the arrowheads!! I’m just very impressed and jealous.

Very well done Josh. The skeleton key is really nice. Congrats on the LC.

Glad that you made it through the snow storm, that’s dedication.

Best of luck to you.
 

Good results for the day's hunt, liking the key's patina, and the finds presentation. Congrats.

Congrats!! Very cool finds. You displayed them very well, thanks for sharing
 

Neat finds, for sure. They should've plated all the nickles. It sure preserved the detail in those spots.
 

THERE IS A NICE BUNCH OF RELICS
 

That's great when your fall back spot is so productive. Great finds. Congrats!
 

How do you take such fantastic photos? You using a light box?

Great finds, by the way!
