I have been out only a few time this last month... Coin finds have been limited to a few mercs and wheats and alot of clad.

Be here are some of the more interesting items I have found in the last few weeks.


Antique Dr. Scholl's Foot-easer Support 1905, 1908. - Other


Medicine bottle and perfume bottle what year??


Lead Army Dude What is he holding and what time period is he from?



The is some kind of pin or button it says W.O.W. They are not M's when you turn it over the W's look like M's but they don't look right so they are W's What is this thing its very tiny smaller then a dime.

wow thanks for all the input... I do find a lot of relics just for the face I did a lot of non coin sounding signals... as long and I can get a mostly consistent back and for signal I'll dig it that why I find neat stuff like this. I have more junk items than I do coins and I also like the history of stuff. I'll post more of my relics I find... I like em too I have more relics than I do coins for sure!

The Woodmen of the World organization was founded in 1890 so it could be that old...

This is a motto to live by. I wouldn't have but 10% of the collection I do if I had dug only coin signals. So many cool and valuable items to be found that will never ring up as a coin. Plus, you get the whole picture of long ago that way--all the brass, pewter, lead, and iron items that were used everyday by people back then. Keep up the good work. That Woodmen badge is a great find.

Cheers,

Post em all
Old Coins are great, but relics can be more interesting and of personal nature.
Congrats on your goodies!

old coins are nice to find but I myself love seeing the old lead soldiers or tootsie toys back in a time when kids played all day with imagination instead of today's video games.........cool finds Chukers
