Today I fount this Vintage hand-made sterling silver hand-stamped Native American concho belt. It has a attractive hammered silver design with 15 distinctly different conchos. There is a copper attachment loop and a leather backing under the conchos. I'm not sure what to make of it. I did...
Kind of interesting... I just found these two old, handmade, hand-formed fiber cowboy /Indian hats. I think the style is called Stetson "Boss of the Plains". I found them at the same location that I found 2 Apache woven baskets. Definitely o-l-d. I'm guessing they were probably from the...
Just wanted to say "Hello" to everyone! :hello:
I am a married mother of 4.... I love going to the creek and looking for Indian Artifacts, and anything else that catches my eye. I love odd rocks...lol
I enjoy photography, reading about history from all sides, fishing, poetry and what we call...
I revisited a cave today where I had found 4 old No 12 head stamps a few months ago. I found 8 more head stamps, a pocket knife, a stone scraping tool, and what looks to me like a bone tool.
The bracelet came from a park later in the day.
Hey guys. Today I hunted a small park located in a northern suburb of Chicago. I was able to cross some finds off my bucket list including a barber dime, indian head penny, and a token. After doing some research I determined that the token was to a vintage peep show joint called bare assets...
Found this little guy today in cedar creek, but im having issues figuring it out. There are multiple finger grooved spots worn down from alot of use. One end pointed, the other v shaped, with a well rounded belly. Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Found here in Southern California, One hour away from LA.
While metal detecting on a permission about year ago, I found this "item".
Its one of a kind find for me and i happen to just dig it up while looking for metal.
I have yet to get good enough info on it.
It is a hollowed out like a...
Went camping over the weekend and had the most unfortunate weather… that is unless you’re an amateur paleontologist! As wind, rain and lighting smashed the top of the mountain I was on, it exposed hundreds of these sea shell fossils. An interesting reminder of the dynamic shift that God put...
I found this scraper in central Montana while fossil hunting on private land. It's from local rock and not very fancy. I've found more modern tools and this looks cruder. It was well used the edge is warn fairly smooth but has nice serrations.
This stone was found in the late 1950's on the ground at a fair in the Southern region of Kentucky. Has been kept my possession for at least 50 years now, and I'm curious to find out the purpose of this tool. Some details the pictures missed, a sharp point on the top end of the rock, a distinct...
Returned to the 1870 tree farm house. Used my smaller coil today and found my first Barber dime! It was absolutely beautiful! Dug a few more wheats. Finished the day walking my creek site for Indiana artifacts. It has been challenging because the fields are no till. I found a reworked point...
Moved to a new site for today, 1870's tree farm house. Was pleased to find some period items along with other targets. Forbes Silver plated spoon, 1902 Indian, Several wheats (three 1920's pocket spill), ax head, pocket knife, 1800's Victorian Horse Bridle Rosette (I think there is a picture...
Alright good people of TreasureNet, I am in need of your help once again.
Somewhere in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona is a very large hilltop (locals call it a mountain but it's not). At the base of that hilltop are petroglyphs, extremly common for this area. On the other side of the hill, I've...

I've seen lots of arrowheads, flake knives, pottery and the like but I haven't seen too many petroglyphs on this site so I figured I post a few that my friend and I discovered hiding in a canyon in North East Arizona. These are extremely old and extremely hard to get to as it requires a lot of...

This crystal/stone was found during land excavating on Long Island in NY.
It is carved with facets. One side has a flower carved into it and on the opposite side is a flat facet to view it through.
Anyone see anything like it?
These were saved in a little box by my father for a very long time. I don't know where or how he got them. I've had them for about 8 yrs now and am interested in selling them. I don't know the first thing about them except they are very, very shiny and look very detailed. I'm sure they are...
Hi all, looking for some help with identifying this artifact. I found it in a plowed field at my grandfathers, very close to the old sea to the mountains Indian trail in NC. I'm guessing for sharpening, my brother thinks for steel, I think perhaps bone. Neither one of us is by no means expert...
Found this about ten years ago in a mole hill, a couple miles away from where the Cowlitz River spills into the Columbia River. It's extremely small, and as you can see it is an agate. I imagine it was probably used to hunt small game due to its small size. I don't have any idea on the age, and...
Bought this at a Garage Sale out in the country about 15 years ago for $75. I would like to know if the story the guy told me is true about finding them all during the building of Del Webb's Sun City in Georgetown, TX. The centerpiece SPEARPOINT is 8 1/4" x 2 1/8" and no chips or impefections...
I bought this wooden case of Arrowheads at a Garage Sale out in the country almost 15 years ago. It has a centerpiece SPEARPOINT that is 8 1/4" x 2 1/8" and in perfect condition; no chips and symetry are great.
I have no clue what "type" it is, or how old it is, or if the story he...
I found a bullet a few inches down in an old Apache fortress, but I don't know much about it. It's 18.45mm tall and it's a 35 caliber round with a rounded off concave at the base. Any additional info you guys could give me? Like how old is it or which side may have been firing it?

I am the last person to know much about fine art. My grandmother has had this picture as long as I can remember (30 yrs +). She recently gave it to me. It has a signature "Bill Bliss" in the lower right corner. I googled him (William Bliss Baker) and couldn't find this painting. It is 24 inches...
Well, after three straight weeks of searching, I finally found something worth posting! Detecting around an old house yesterday at my college, found an 1890 Indian Head penny. I almost fainted I was so excited

Hi, I'm new here and found this 5" down in the backyard of our 1960s suburban home. We have lived here for 15+ years and the previous owners were original. Before that the property was part of a farm.
There is no writing or identifying marks on it. Both sides are the identical indian cheif...
When I was hiking the Umpqua trail last year I met a couple who were camping near the Swiftwater park a few miles from Glide Oregon. The girl told me that her father was a lumber jack in these woods 50yrs ago. She gave me the directions for one ancient Indian Village in great detail. The other...
The field in the back of my house was being dug up because of the beginning of a small sinkhole, and to my surprise the workers found a Native American Indian-made vase, fully intact! I was so utterly astounded that I rushed to make an account on this site to ask if anyone would be...
I've been trying to find out what I have here on the bottom left, and the bottom right. The latter looks like it could have been some type of knife? Any suggestions?
Also found this small arrowhead (about the size of a quarter) last week.. :happy3:
All found in NC...
Just came across this website and already know I'll be visiting frequently...
Anyway, I found this a couple months ago in an old farming field near a river in NC, looks like it was made of concrete? Any idea what it could be? A weight? :icon_scratch:
Any suggestions/advice is appreciated...
Excluding the last trip, these are my finds over the last three months.
A few of the coins were repeats.
I am home for Thanksgiving and had time to post coin pictures.

Also not pictured are ~300 common date wheats...
Just picked up 30$ in CWR in cents and got all ready to start, dumped the fist roll and the first 4 on top were Indian heads! Along with 1 wheat struggling about 10 cents behind.
I definitely ready to look through the rest of these. I've got my meal and I'm ready to go. Final results will be...
Hi, in the last 5 years I found these artifacts in southwest Minnesota near the Des Moins River. I was wondering if anyone could give a rough date on them. 2 arrowheads and a possible piece of pipe stone jewelery.The quarter is just to compare size.. Also could they be worth anything? (just curious)
