I got out yesterday for a quick hunt while my son was in soccer practice. Its getting colder here and the ground will freeze. I enjoy posting on today's finds so here is my treasures from yesterday. The blob of alluminum was a token, you can still read miners. The copper bowl is all there I may try to restore it someday! I am not sure what the iron piece is, maybe a grandfather clock part. Thanks for looking, Happy Hunting!!!! 0927170756_HDR-1.webp0927170757-1.webp

..: NICE ASSORTMENT of FINDS DiggingThe1 :..
Thanks for sharing!
 

Good stuff, sad to see that token the way it is.
 

I do like that bowl.
 

Thanks for the posts! I love when you find a big patch of dirt that you can tell was a big trash dump. Anything can pop out. You never know what will come out of the ground. I think I had gone over this spot when I first started detecting. I can't wait to go over it with my new detector when it comes out!!!!
 

That green copper bowl is cool as heck. I absolutely LOVE green patina on copper, brass, bronze items. It just says COOL! Might be some more treasure in that trash heap.:icon_thumright:
 

Flat out drag on that token ! My condolences !!! I believe your copper bowl is actually a brass Pozzoni's face powder tin , here is one I dug in a privy up there . sorry for all the pic's but wanted enough for you to compare.

Awesome Dutch plate...that token would bug the heck out of me...I would try searching towns nearby with "miners good for token" and see if anything comes up. I found two aluminum tokens melted together and only could identify a couple words, never did figure it out...good luck
 

Great hunt and excellent finds.....Congrats!!
 

That is one cool bowl.
 

Thanks for the posts and the ID Charlie. They are a pretty good match. I bet seeing that come out of a hole was pretty exciting! I have about three of 4 melted aluminum that you can partially read too bad they melt so easily!
