Super great Finds!
Yeah, you might have found a trail,
I'd stick with that trend, and see if anymore can be found,
next time you're out there...!

All in one day?! Reeally?! SLAP yourself HARD to make sure your not dreaming! I'm not jealous. Jk unbelievable hunt! Thanks for the pic. Saving that one

Ya Im still in shock, that wasn't all though, 2 undamaged axe heads and some musket balls as well. It took a lot of research and figuring to find this location but it is paying off!

Wow. Thats quite the spot you have going on there. There must be a camp near by there somewhere. It does not get mucb better than that. Huge congrats. Is that a broach or locket that opens? Maybe for a horse bridal?. Any MMs on the axes?

 

[Oddjob]

That is a really significant find; are you going to research the area or any old trade routes in the area?

 

[trapperart]

Congrats on some great finds

Cool. I have found trade rings scattered in line from plowing in the past. But your axe heads don"t show plowing/discing hits, so dunno ?

 

[BigWaveDave]

Museum quality finds... Amazing!

Sorry on the late reply.
I'm pretty sure it is " W JOHNSTON" but it could also be " W JOHNSION" I can't confirm the T it looks like it could also be a I.

I have the matching axe head but the larger normal size with the makers mark in the same place/same size but unreadable.

Great finds!

The top center clear is a "nipple ring", for reasons quite apparent when you look at it closely. I have a few of those, kinda neat. Nice finds bud.

 

[Rege-PA]

Wow! One would make my year, you`re holding alot of history in your hand. Congrats on the hard work and research.

You must have been over the moon. Those are amazing finds, with a return trip planned, I hope..

Congrats
