Indian Heads and Mystery Relic: UPDATED PHOTO

The pics of the Merc are from my front yard last night,couldn't resist adding them to today's finds. I've covered this area next to my front sidewalk many times with my stock coil and different settings but I might have to give credit to the 12 inch coil on this one.
I revisited my favorite one room schoolhouse site this afternoon and with the weeds down and the added area that this 12 inch coil covers I was able to coax three more coins out of this site.
The big piece is a whatzit. It's aluminum approximately 8 inches in diameter. Thanks for havin a look. HH,Jerry
Here's a picture of the large "pot/pale" item after boiling it to soften the aluminum and straightening it out a bit

Those are tremendous coin finds. Don't know what the big thing is other than kitchen something! lol

Hit that place again Jerry and the big coil has been helping me too!

Hey Jerry, that Merc is gorgeous, and those Indians are great!!! Nice finds!!

Could that be some kind of a cooking pot that hangs over a fire? I dunno..

Great hunt(s)!

Re: Indian Heads and Mystery Relic

Great finds "Jerry". Those coins are real nice. What type of a 12" coil are you
using on your DFX? I've been thinking about getting one. Congratulations
on a fine day. Doug (blklab)

Re: Indian Heads and Mystery Relic

Very nice coin finds. That merc is a beaut!

My guess is some sort of cooking apparatus, It looks similar to a small soup cooking dish I had in my camping gear.

Congrats on the coins.
