I was out for a bit Friday near an old home-site with Kimsdad and found
a few odds & ends. . . a crotal bell, copper toe-tap and a '37 Wheat but today,
I made some of my most unusual finds ever.

While hunting a few old homesteads with Mayo, Lobatts and Dirt Fishing Wolf,
my day started out sweet with a '43-S War Nickel and soon after, two Colorado
Tax Tokens (vintage 1935-1945), a '30 Wheat, some live ordnance, a "mini"
deer shed and a few other pieces.

An hour or two later, we all moved west to another site and this is where I made
my most unusual find ever. . . a White Tail Deer scapula with a partial arrow
still imbedded! (It's just sad that this hunter was 9" too high with his aim >:()

Thanks for looking!

That looks like it'd hurt...
Ah... the War Nickel. Perhaps now you can pull 6 or 7 of those in a row, at least that's what happened to me once I found one. Nice assortment of finds...

Cool finds Mark! Had a good time out there, only netted a nickel(196?) for the cash total on the day.

I'm glad I didn't find that bone. Just looking at the pic makes me sad and thinking about how that poor deer suffered. :(
