UPDATE!! I think I might have found the oldest pewter olive oil cap in the world.


I went back to the park and use the 15 inch equinox Coil and it had me digging deep I did find something interesting but I’m not sure what it is and I can’t find it on the Internet. All I can make out is that it’s French and says A****HE (I think) PUGET MARSEILLE. It was apparently a screw top of some sort and made of what reminds me of pewter. It rang up on a solid 16 at 9 inches and I really wouldn’t dig anything on the equinox at 16 but it was so solid and deep I had to see what it was and this is it. Any help would be much appreciated. Also some weird lead pieces and what nots. One thing I could say about this coil your arms won’t hurting from swinging it but they’ll sure be hurting from digging it.

Don't think will help but...

Mont Puget is a mountain, part of Marseille-Cassis calanques, located south-east of Marseille. Like most Marseille mountains, it is formed from limestone.
 

Gonna have to toothbrush water that one on that first word IMO to pin it down.

No it at a old hunted out park I found the 1787 1 reales and the 1806 1/2 real in the same hole the other day did you see them....a Spanish silver spill. I started at this place with my Bounty Hunter been there hundreds of times with all my detectors over the years. Now it’s my NEW spot lol
 

I drooled over that spill in Spanish. My town was founded in 1817 no battles no wars kinda sucks lol but I manage some relics here and there and as many silver coins and rings as I can.

Keep looking Spanish was big around here and so were battles. Still hard to find but persistence is key my friend.

Hi Truth French 1800's Olive Oil came in a bottle with a applied seal latour , hand blown . Black to green and had a glass stopper. TP
 

Neat find Truth. Better than a screw cap off of a beer bottle !
