Those are some amazing finds. Few interesting pieces hopefully someone will ID.

Prior to those 3 coins I was digging farmer dropped wheat pennies, a buffalo nickel and the 1928 standing liberty quarter. Finding this new money is a tough pill to swallow when you know you're on a very old site...in fact I was beginning to get aggravated after the 6th new coin.

if you lived where I live, those 'new' coins would be great finds.

Can someone tell me what this copper item is? I found it on the site. Have found several of these - all on early sites. Thanks

Looks like a conical copper arrowhead

Sent from my SCH-S738C using TreasureNet in the middle of a field somewhere

Great finds Digger! Thanks for sharing...

those rolled copper arrowheads are neat - a sign you are on a good site....contact period and a little later...

Awesome Finds! That's on old site for sure!

Great job GW! That's a bunch of nice early coinage. Glad you can still get in the fields over your way. Everything is off limits in my area now. Have you tried to find the trash pit yet?

Missed this post while I was in Maryland! Great bunch of early finds. I'll take a plate of that any day!

 

[joeyfresh]

Great find! I'm already having withdrawals so what time should I meet you at that site in the morning?

Man GWD, your new site is off the charts. You are in a very old area that will produce some killer finds(not that it hasn't all ready). Your copper cone is most likely a Native American Tinkler Tinkle Cones | The Materials of History, Thought, and Art which in it's self is an outstanding find. I can't wait to see what you pull out of there next.
Congrats,
ZDD

I just realized this was posted on the 4/27. How in the world did it slip down so far with so few comments? This place confuses me sometimes, lol.
