I’m still hunting the RxR site and these are my finds from the last several hunts.
The Santa Fe lock was found a few weeks ago, I found another lock but it’s a modern day style lock. I also found a Chinese coin. Can anyone date it?

I found 3 coins on top of iron. If you look closely you might be able to see the rust stains still 2 of them.

ANT YOU FOUND A VERY NICE ASSORTMENT OF ITEMS THERE.CONGRATS. KEEP DIGGING YOU

Hey thank you all.
The area still has plenty of potential. But it's a day to day thing, some days finds lot of stuff. On other days the finds are slim, but they are still coming out.


Hi Ray.
I’m going to try and hit that place this coming weekend, I’ll let you know how I do. Thanks Pastor Ray.

God Bless.

Hi pookie, thanks.
Those tokens came form a small area as if someone had tossed them out onto the ground from an ashtray. They are from the 1960's collectible Shell Gasoline Station Presidential coin game. I remember them back then clearly, and almost anyone from back then will to.

Hi kaikaitoo, thanks.

Hi Rick, and thanks.
No it’s not, but that’s what a lot of people think. Believe me, if it was, I wouldn’t have posted a photo for the site to be easily ID’ed. That’s how a lot of us find sites to hunt, so be forewarned.

Either Ming or Qing (shing) dynasty. The new ones are aluminum....Woh wei shoa putunghua. What may be of interest to some is a small statue that I bought off of a street vender that turned out to be real. It was probably stolen from a collection of 7 ancient pieces of old myth characters. This one is a (saint) of the old. He is Zhang Guolao who rode all over China on a donkey promoting peace and good will to all...Also Ming dynasty....

this little figurine is actually part of the legendary 'Eight Immortals' in Taoism religion. here's a link to their description.

based on the words on the chinese coin(which is actually placed upside down) in the left picture, i can say that the coin is from the reign of 'Qian Long' emperor, who ruled the dynasty from October 11, 1736 – February 7, 1795.

below is a link to the emperor

You are luck that you can hunt RXR sites. Here in OH it is against the law to be on RXR properties. You have some nice finds there. Love the lock that is one great find...Matt
 

These finds are inspiring. I'm gonna work around the RR some myself but you've set the bar high, very high. :thumbsup:
