Hey guys! After wanting to go back to my uncles house for about 2 weeks, I finally went back! It was the same place I dug the 1923 wheatie and the chinese cash coin and that nate dug that 1797 british copper. Well today was very productive and LOTS of fun! 
I went by myself and detected for four hours. My first hit was a 1918 wheatie! Then my third hit was a 1920 wheatie! I was pumped to say the least!
After about 2 hours of digging modern coins that were around the backyard and the right side of the house, my detector gave me a really strong penny signal then went to dime. I said, "What the hell! I will dig it" At first I only saw the bottom of the figurine, which had a name on the bottom, and then some numbers which read II 814? I didn't know what that meant, so I handed the little figurine to my uncle and he went to go wash it off. My uncle said that it was a chinese metal figurine (but I am not so sure). Both of us couldn't make out the writing on the figurine.
After another hour went by I dug a Clothes Line pipe! It wasn't very deep but as soon as I did, all of the targets started to free up and sound much clearer then they were before! That was when I found my Second Chinese Cash coin! 
Anyways today was a great 4 hours of hunting even though one of those hours was spent digging up all of the trash in the yard.
Hope everyone got out! Please help me identiy this figurine!
Sorry, in advance for so many pictures!
