duh...duh... DFX
I finally got my camera working (it got soaked on the way home from JerDFX's place in PA when my camelbak bladder broke and spilled 2L on it :-\) so I thought that some of you might enjoy a few pics of the finds from some recent short hunts. One hunt was with Mirage to a place that was a pay-to-swim lake from (I am guessing here) the 50's to the 70's and has produced two of the Mercs and the war nickle pictured here as well as the darkened silver Rosie. The other stuff is from all-over. The small Johnson Phenolax Wafers bottle I especially like. The "SRM" engraved token appears to be made from an old Canadian half-dime (barely visible on one side). Plenty of wheats (I think there are around 30 scattered in the pic, but no key dates (too lazy to even clean them lately). Also pictured is a cool (the second I have dug) medicine bottle with an engraved copper casing). Can't be too old as the top is threaded. The sterling earring with the inlaid mother of pearl is from a sledding hill nearby. It cleaned up great!
I know it's a pile of confusion, but hey,.....that's the way my life has felt lately and the pics accurately reflect that :D

Nice digs Danimal. I like the cross. Good variety in coins.
 
Love the cross, your boyscout slide is in much better shape than mine (it was hit by a lawnmower), love the silver too.
 
Nice assortment of treasure!

Love them swimmin' holes! Wilver and marbles too!


Congratulations!

Glad the camera survived, too bad about the camelback though.
Nice mixture of finds..I like old bottles and that one is cool.

So, that is what you have been up to lately...finding wilver, Wheats, and other oldies. I thought you were taking a short break from this great hob.

Dan, I wish you and the Berg gang luck on your future hunts.

Hmmm...I smell an American half dime in your future...a Draped! :)

Nice finds, Danimal! Cool bottles.

Love the variety,too!

Thanks for sharing.
 
Do you wear a helmet while datectin'? :D Just joking, bud! That Ace DFX is kicking!
 
Nice finds Danimal! Great assortment. That one pic looks like the back of my SUV! I keep saying I am going to clean it out, but everytime I do it just gets filled back up with my fishing poles and different shoes and socks and knives and diggers....You get the picture!
LOL

You took the words right out of my mouth. Way to go on that FANTASTIC collection of finds!
 
Dan,
What a variety pack! Love the Mercs & that blue marble. When you have a minute, do you mind posting a few more shots of the copper cased bottle? I've never seen one before.
Thanks & congrats,
MM
 
Now those are mighty purdy pictures!

I see you find marbles too. Most every hunt I come home with one or more. I can be way out in the middle of nowhere and dig marbles.

Luv the Cub Scout bola!

Great digs.
