i found a porcelain doll head...1880ish..german...blue eye peaking up at me...

i was looking down thinking...too bad it's broke...went to pick it up, stuck...careful digging with a small stick...she was intact, except the side that was in the dirt had the paint removed...

Being an archaeologist I have found many artifacts including a few good pieces I use to belong to a archaeologist club but to pricey now

A complete upper denture. Looks like it belonged to a lady, IMO. It was smiling at me from the beach sand. I stuck my shovel in and around it to make sure it wasn't attached to anything else before picking it up, iffin ya know what I mean.

It is a nice chopper too! No ID on it though! I still have it!

I have found nice Bennington marbles, dolls heads, clay pipes etc, but what I think was the most interesting, from a colonial site were two handmade red clay dominoes, one broken the other perfect!
