Found my lost sailor boy

[River Rat]

Found the sailor boy on Dec 31, lost him and found him again today along with the other items at a new site I am hunting on. I have yet to use the MD out there, everything has been surface finds. Another marble, and musket ball?? I think it's a lead weight. The Indian artifacts are kinda hard to see on the scan, but you can see the works. 1st time to find a multiple colored arrowhead...that's a pride for me. Plus much more pottery (not pictured). The dime was found on the side of the road next to my car.

RiverRat, great eyeballing. The artifacts are great. Wonder what lies a little below the surface? The marble might be worth a few bucks, need a better pic of it, though.


Cracker Jack was first produced in 1893. The Sailor (Jack) has a leash in his hands...which may explain the "line" across your sailor boy's front side.

Hey RiverRat...I am glad you found him too, but how did you lose him in the first place....maybe I missed that part.

Wow RR, that is a beauty of a point. Long, slender and WHOLE! Amazing that one stayed in one piece.

The sailor is awsome! Stop losing him.

I tiny shadowbox with that sailor inside would stop most anyone in their tracks. Nice arrowheads too.
