South Baltimore Finds


Ran into George, who got to the park before me. Always good to have an opportunity to share thoughts with a fellow detectorist.
I spent most of the time grid searching one area and found some deep lead and brass, a 1904 IHP that some took some tin snips to, 7 wheats that ranged from 1909 to 1952D, some clad, and a 1939 Jefferson nickel. One item posted here has the letters "NED" followed by a space and then "ME". George suggested this is some form of soldering lead. Your input is welcome, as it is for the other non-coin object that looks like a whistle.

Nice maybe ball lead for musket mold
 

Thanks. From what I've been able to research it has the detail of a lead soldering bar.
 

I kind of like that IH penny. It has a lot of character. I think you did find yourself a whistle also.
 

Nice finds! The last item may be part of an old Barrel Tap.
 

Some Good Treasure there McCDig! Like the IH, it looks like it was ready for a rescue....:thumbsup:
 

Interesting finds!
 

Nice finds to bad about the IH...
 

Nice finds, I found that in public parks it sometimes requires going over the same area multiple times, removing trash as you go, before you hit the goods hiding beneath, great finds!
 

sad about the IH and yet it adds character, I would be happy to find one like it
 

I agree. Now I'm in grid search mode between large trees. Tedious but necessary.
