Back at my T.O.C. site today. No silver but 9 I.H's and 4 V nicks and relics!

This site has been amazing in the way of turn of the 19th century finds! So here are todays finds. 001.JPG This item says (American Badge Co. Chicago). 003.JPG I have no clue on these two items, neat though. 004.JPG Some type of buckle would be my guess on the item to the right. 005.JPG 007.JPG Last are the coins. So that's 39 Ih's and 11 V nicks, 5 Barber dimes and one awesome 1890 Morgan in the last two weeks! Or last 5 hunts. :laughing7: Sorry I can't help myself I have to rub it in. I just hope the best for other dedicated MD'rs in "stumbling" on a site like this. 006.JPG Good luck everyone, and thanks for viewing.

Don't ya just hate it when all you find is 9 Indians... LOL Great finds...
 

You've been killing it Helix! One of my favorite and best sites was a random spot with no written history and nothing on the old maps. The greatest sites are the ones nobody knows exist. Great job on getting the goods
 

looks like a nice wax seal too, nice finds
 

Great spot! Nice finds and I hope you find more;)

-Happy Hunting!
 

Strange part is that all these coin finds have been random finds. What I mean is nothing appeared to be coin spills. I find one ih and walk over 10' and another. I have found concentrated areas of relics and coins "hot spots" as I call them but nothing like someone sat down an 5 Indians fell out of ones pocket. Also the Morgan, wow that was a good days pay during those times.
 

great finds, what ever those two are, they are very ornate
 

That's an incredible site ! I am officially jealous - since I have never (yet ) found one Indian Head or a V nickel for that matter .
 

Very cool finds once again, this is probably a dumb question but what is T.O.C. ? I figured it must be some text language, but what do you want from a dumb old roofer.

I love that Morgan, keep rubbing it in. When I find mine I'll let you know too, very cool!

T.O.C. means Turn of The Century. Go look up "Glassfromthepast1" on Youtube. He coined the phrase " t.o.c. is not for me" I also dig for bottles when I can..
 

Stuff I 'v had 224.JPG Stuff I 'v had 223.JPG What this pipe...... Its a rare one. late 1800's
 

Sorry if I am going into other finds from the past but. 008.JPG 009.JPG It is in fact the real deal.
 

That pipe is incredible!
 

Yes the pipe came from a huge brick 6' around and 20' deep privy. 403.JPG Lots of cool finds! 396.JPG Sorry about the poor quality pics. I dug this one about 5 years ago before I owned a digital camera. I need to post the full story and pics under the bottle forum sometime.
