What's up everyone

Met up with my brother sat to hit a foundation. It had some life left but not a ton. I scored a barber quarter eagle I button and 10ft from the button I get this cool old lead gun toy or maybe civil war lead

Any experts out there who can tell what kind of rifle it may be. It was near the button thought it was strange and maybe related

Hit the parks the rest of this week squeezing some mercs buffs few Indians. Then I find this tiny little silver soldier head coin art maybe?????

All in all nothing breathtaking but a few nice items to add to the yrs totals.

Thanks for looking

Jer

Great bunch of finds congrats on all
 

Thats a great variety of finds.
 

That's a nice day of digging
 

Nice stuff as usual!

That little soldier head has a WW1 style helmet on. That's very cool.
 

What a great mix you found...Congratulations!
 

I don't know if I'll be able to get a photo attached but I. Have a bronze8""long replica of a U.S.military M1 Garland rifle with bayonet that looks just like your find if yours appears broken off just forward of the sling.uploadfromtaptalk1462537542155.webp
 

Amend above post to read,M1 Garand.Stupid phone spell check.Lol
 

nice finds !
 

Jeremy you always come up with a pile of varied finds. You certainly put the effort in and the results show it.
 

Very cool and diverse diggings! :treasurechest::thumbsup:
 

I don't know that I've ever seen such a wide variety of finds. I find myself pausing and studying practically every item. Some really cool stuff! The helmeted soldier has an Asian look to me, maybe Korean or Vietnamese?
 

Thanks for all the comments guys

Yes I work hard at this hobby. I have my good days and bad. I pretty much hunt for anything old I can find

That rifle looks very much like the one I have. Mine is lead though for sure. It very well may have had a bayonet attached at one point

Thanks Tom I was thinking ww1 or ww2 for the little silver soldier head. Read a 10/43 on the etrac and man is he small.
