The UNusual suspects...best find not even metal

[PlzBSeated]

Last time I went out the ATPro was a little jumpy due to an undetermined source of electrical interference. I took the E-Trac out today to the same place because the E-Trac handles interference so well. The good news is, I wasn't missing much with the Pro.



First unusual find is this Aluminum Clothes Pin. Hollywood Pin-Ups. Initially produced in the mid-40s. Not sure how long they were produced or how many.

And when digging, you always find a few surprises in the process.



Love finding old marbles! This is a glazed Brown Bennington. Not positive on age but I think they were produced in Germany between the mid and late 1800s. Only the second Bennington I've ever come across. The other was a little smaller and blue. These are fairly sought after collectibles.



Today's finds...

Nice unique finds!.

Thanks for the post, and couldn't agree with you more. Old bottles, marbles, the odd arrowhead - not all treasures have to be metal. But - the hobby got you there so you still must pay homage to the MD gods!
