Back to the old amusement park, NOT SO HUNTED OUT...

[TnT2000]

I spent the weekend at the old Island amusement park I told you about last week.

On Saturday My wife, and kids went with me (by canoe this time not waders) he he
we picked up a lot of historical trinkets from the park, most I have not identified, for example the fourth photo is very small, at first I thought it was a bullet until I got it cleaned off, it has a top and bottom, some gold spots and some writing I am trying to read yet. It is about 1 1/2" long...Any Idea's
My wife got the 1891 V nickle
I got a 1908 Indian head and a 1910 wheat. (photo's post #2 below)

On sunday afternoon I went back with JohnyMc and MarkgPA and pulled another Indian head a 1901 in nice shape. It was a fun weekend for all.. I love this hobby...

Thanks for looking TnT

The whatzit looks like it opens in the middle or screws apart. Have you attempted to open it? I'd soakd it in solvent for a few days and see if I could get it open. My guess would be a wooden match or Lucifer holder. Monty

Not so hunted out indeed. Hope you find some silver there.

in my time detecting one thing is true.there is no hunted out areas,it just takes alittle more patience and some keen observations of the area.always think,were would be people have been that no one else might look?that thinking has helped me find alot of coins.

peace,bigrig

 

[TnT2000]

The only thing on the bottle on the bottom is 144 or 14.4 and under that 14
