Three Flying Eagles In Three Days

tymcmurray · Apr 25, 2009

I am by far, the luckiest relic hunter this week.
The house I have been hunting is FULL of garbage!!
Take a look at some of the stuff I had to dig to get to the
good relics.

Anyway, My last two posts
http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,234614.0.html
http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,234786.0.html
Had me reeling with great finds!!!
Joe and I hit the place again today, and I got the shock of digging
ANOTHER Flying Eagle, for a total of THREE in three days from the
same site!

I also got a 1902 Indian, a 1823 Coronet Head (Key date worth about $200),
and the usual brass odds and ends.

I know how lucky I am!!
The homeowner left out some family reunion photos from the 1800's to share.

Wow Ty, What a great hunt and love all the research you have done. Great pictures from
now and the past.

I hope I'm not to late, please, please don't try to clean the Flying Eagles. They look Great
just the way they are. If you try to clean them, especially in tap water that has salt in it, they
will turn to crap. Please, just leave them alone. put them in a folder and keep them.

As for hunting in the creek, you bet, I'd be in there in a heart beat. Too bad the pond is gone, bet
everyone threw a coin in it for good luck!!

Again, Thanks for an incredible post.

HH, Ringfinder
