Found a strange one today.
There's a creek next to my house with street parking that runs along the side . No sidewalk , just a dirt strip around 10 feet wide with a big bolder every ten feet , for about a block long.
The creek is about 10 feet below street level. I've detected the area a couple times and found a few bucks in clad.
Yesterday the city came in and cut all the heavy brush away , revealing a small flat spot a couple feet from the top. Got a few hits.Found .67 cents on the flat area . Started doing the bank on my way back up to street level when BAM ! Damn near blew my headphones off ! I kicked the dirt away and saw pointy things in a circle. Great , a bike sprocket i thought. So i grabbed it and gave it a yank and this is what came out !![p1.jpg p1.jpg](https://www.treasurenet.com/data/attachments/1382/1382311-6e03a346463a886c5b18112e3b8ac721.jpg)

I believe its the Goddess Vishnu. Doesn't look like Buddha. Its about 12in tall , all brass.
Strangely enough last week i found Jesus !![p3.jpg p3.jpg](https://www.treasurenet.com/data/attachments/1382/1382321-406b9d8b14128fdadf0143754a8a8ca2.jpg)
