Hello Again!
I had another major weekend of hunting earlier this month. On one day I hit an old picnic grove, and brought along my buddy Joe G.....He did real well -- he found three Mercs, a religious medal and a WW II-era military button, all in short order. I had a decent haul myself, snagging a Merc and two silver Washingtons, in addition to a few other finds. The Washingtons were in the same hole, no less. Now THAT was a signal!
The next day I drove out to the boonies and hit a really old school I'd been eyeing. Not great, but not terrible either: I ended up with a 1906 Indian Head, a really nice 1961 Washington, as well as a small toy metal cowboy hat, a harmonica reed, a fake gold chain, an old buckle, a key on a keychain, and some other whatsits and the like.
One of the finds is a large, long pointed hollow copper cone. I have NO idea what it is -- it almost looks like a socketed spear/javelin point or butt end to me, but who knows. I do know it is old -- I found it next to a massive old tree, about 8 inches down, completely wedged underneath gigantic tree roots. No one's been down there for a while. Any ideas what it might be?
Enjoy the pics!
Cheers and HH,
Brendan
