I was hunting with my little buddy Johnny, he went hunting with me earlier in the summer on my best ever silver finds in one day. Here is a pic of him with that silver Boy Scout ring he had found that day.

We went to the new farm field permission, I had been waiting for them to finish up deer hunting. I found a 1919 Wheat and two crotal bells (spelling?) and he found a 1927 Merc and a 1955 Wheat. The fields were very muddy and I did not take my phone because I knew it was going to be messy. We were not really able to hunt everywhere, there was standing water on most areas. Good start for the little bit we did do.

Last Sat we hunted together at the farm fields where the owner swore I wasn't going to find anything. That day Johnny found what I believe to be a powder flask? Any help on the ID of Johnny's flask would be greatly appreciated? Here is a pic, I'm trying to get him to send better pix of it.

Np...
Tell him I said this is the beginning of a great MD career... :)

If this had the top...I would call this a banner.
 

Oh... and PS > ... I would bet the top is there.
Go back to exact spot that was... and work a box or circle pattern out from hole it came from...
IF nothing...
Work toward and beyond... "obvious" or "likely" direction that you think "path of travel" was / is.
 

Nice Flask find..
