With the lack of snow and early melt in Minnesota, artifact hunting started early this year. Here is a group of 8 artifacts I found detecting in March. Notice the silver on the conical point second from the bottom of the photo. Two other artifacts with silver follow, a point with silver on one side of the socket and a squared worked piece about 3/8" thick. I have almost 100 artifacts with silver in my collection, mostly found in the U.P. and northern Wisconsin.

Can you be a little more specific about location? Having silver in them makes them important markers. I'll add them to my copper database if you can give me the county(ies) they were found in. Thanks - moberein@yahoo.com
