I found this in the Pet Cemetery , about 6 feet in front of the headstones , 4 inches deep . I can't make out the name at the top....R something . The rust seems to be fused to the brass . I have it soaking in olive oil . the other part says GLENDON MAINE

The pet's owner probably put that there?
 
Hell yeah! Dude I'm the devil but that's just mean. I know I dig in the cemetery's " human" I found a knife next to a five year olds grave and I put that knife back right away. I did take a look at it and said nice knife and put it back.. ;D Made out of elephant trunk! Mid 30s so i guess it was it looked like it though who knows.

nice!! i hope there is a date under that rust i have hunted the outside edges of cemetery's myself and done well
 
There has to be another place to hunt, like a park or something. Put it back.
 
We are in the process of cleaning this plot up , our farm was once a dog kennel for breeding Show Dogs back in the 30's and 40's . The area is all over grown with trees now - only 2 stones . There are remnants of a picket fence that was once around the small plot .

Don't worry we have no intentions of disturbing the pets final resting place .

I plan on making a new fence and cutting down some trees to let some sunlight shine there again (firewood !) . I will be detecting the area as I clear it more .

any ideas how to get the rust off that tag ?

My best solution, put into a rock tumbler with a couple drops of lime away. It's tough to tell from a photo, but it is possible it's to far gone, hopefully not.

whether its human or an animal cemetary,
i dont believe in detecting in it.

No to get personal with anyone but I feel the same way :icon_sunny:
 
You say you own the said "C" ground..then in my opinion you can do what ever U want to it Mojax.
I know you are on the right track to turning it back to what it once was & would be a shame to ignore trinkets scattered about,on your quest to Make a Better resting place.
