My first interesting find: I found an old sprinkler in my yard today

[Larsmed]

Today, I was detecting with my cheapo Ace 150 by my house and
found a lawn sprinkler called the "owl" which was popular in the years 1907-1920's. It was only 2 inches deep. Funny. Is it even worth posting? lol!

My sis has quite a large collection of old sprinklers. One has a patent date of 1895. Let's see your find. It's all good.

The cheapo will still beepo. The first is certainly not the last. Some people can't find their bottms with both hands, little lone a 80+ yr old anything buried in the yard. Congrats, I envy the thrill of the first find of anything unknown only a few minutes before.

one mans trash is another mans treasure
