Well, Mastereagle and I went out on a hunt the other night and ended up at a residence that was right next to a civil war site where we have found a few items in the past. We were pretty excited as we felt the property had never been detected before. As usual, ME22 found better stuff than I did; it seems my only luck is bad luck lately.
Anyway, we pulled up in the driveway to ask permission and this guy was walking out of the backyard. I told ME22 that I would handle talking to him. (That is why we got permission) When I let him do the talking it usually ends up with the cops showing up and him saying to them...."Can't I just dance my way out of this little situation?" I will stop there...I'm not sure if you all just ate, so I will give you a break. Anyway, here is what I found:

A Missouri Sales Tax Reciept marked "1"

I also found a Martin-Senour Free Spirit Paint Token dated 1981....not old, but interesting I guess.

I recognize the JP tag as I have found a ton of those. I think they are from roses people have planted that were grown in Oregon...
 
Baldingboy,
ME gets out early and plants a few things for him to find later. Don't let him fool ya.
Now that axe id something pretty cool!

ME just trying to make him feel better.
 
I'm confused BB. This doesn't sound like the same hunt that ME described. No mention of clown shoes or ringmaster costumes.
Is this the same hunt?

I do not plant anything! That isn't my style besides if you look at my post you will see I dig about 20 pieces of trash for every one find!!!! :nono:

Besides I know that BB has just slowed down on purpose to let me catch up with him on Good finds! OK BB I've caught up you can go back to kickin my backside with your finds! :thumbsup:
 
Looks like you guys had a great time as usual! I remember when you were finding all the good stuff and ME was sad faced and now it seems the tables turned....of course they will continue to turn so soon you will be doing the happy dance again! lol I love the stories you guys tell and can't wait to see you both in person at CTH2!
 
Sorry to dissapoint Cynangyl, but I'm sending my stunt double to the CTH2 ::) :wink: ;D

Yep. And not so very long ago! :D And I'd say that paint token's a keeper...so is the axe. :) Can't wait to see you two!!!

Nana :-*

Bad luck only comes to those who allow it. :stop:
 
That axe head is a nice find. Brush it down and treat it and it will be a nice relic in your collection. :icon_sunny:
