Went to a construction site I have been digging at lately, and had an above average after work hunt.
Most of the stuff found here has been from the early 1900s, but I have seen a lot of indian pottery chards laying on top.
The site is near where a local seafood factory used to sit that is on the 1914 Sanbornes.
I have really been hoping to find one of the factory tokens, but I have yet to be so fortunate.

We had a good rain Sunday night and it must have helped to expose a few surface finds.
Started out finding a shell button and a couple clay marbles on top.
Then a screaming signal that ended up being a 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar.
Ended the hunt by eyeballing my first complete clay pipe bowl.

Nice score on the Morgan and the pipe bowl.

"Most of the stuff found here has been from the early 1900s, but I have seen a lot of indian pottery chards laying on top."

Up and around here the Archies would have shut the site down and had the trowels and screens working.
 

Outstanding finds ! Congrats on all of it. Those are some great pieces of history.
