My first silver coin of the year ended up being my oldest silver coin to date. I figured it was a beautiful morning for a detecting trip and it worked out to be one of my best days so far.

Some native copper, more tinkle cones, arrow head, musket side plate piece and the large green piece of copper is very old but I'm not sure what it is....any ideas?

Congratulations on the old silver and the other great looking finds
The long copper piece might be a spear point.

The large point reminds me of the tang knives found in the Texas area.

Are you in Canada? Seated is hard to find, especially north of the border...congrats on all your finds!

Yep Northern Ontario, the border is only 200 km's away so we see lots of US coins here.

Nice finds! As another one who sought Native American Artifacts for many years you did great! And though I have found older coins, I still haven't found a seated anything, so I'm a little envious. WTG! It's in pretty good shape too. HH!
