That is awesome finds. River Rat you never disappoint. I love that badge a lot. Congratulations my friend
Thanks Truth! I'm trying to keep up with you. I thought it was a police badge at first. Definitely display case worthy

Nice finds! Wish it was this River Rat finding them. Like your name! I've been River Rat since I was knee high to a duck. My dad put the pet name on me, since I was always playing in water & mud. Also, I'm a female.

Thanks! Good to know there are other river rats out there! I started out digging up an old privy at age 12, soon thereafter graduated to diving rivers. However most of my latest hunting has been on land. I think the pipe was manufactured in Ireland.

Hey NOLA how did the badge come out? Believe it or not I’ve put them in my tumbler and they’ve come out great.

I actually never tried cleaning it up. I was thinking of soaking it in some Bar Keepers Friend. Sounds like I need to get a tumbler.
