I'm partial to the Silvers but the Seal Top Spoon got all the love on my facebook groups seems most are found in pieces Town founded 1630 all the dirt is old.

The pot pipe won't delete, Oh well Ran the Iron shovel thru electrolysis cleaned up nice

Love that little plane also.

I love shoe buckles but that spoon is by far the best find of the group. That would make my year.

The item you are holding with your "roach clip" looks to be a colonial period pipe tamp. Looks like a great site you are on.

Rick - The seal spoon is a tremendous find. You might have considered "COMPLETE 17TH CENTURY SEAL SPOON" for the title of your thread. Only a few such spoons have ever been posted on TNet to the best of my knowledge. Hunters of colonial-period history will spend years in search of such a specimen and never succeed. I'm voting banner on this.

It is the top of the Spoon and the Roach Clip is a Solderers hands-free second set of hands with a Magnifying glass. Who smokes joints anymore? I found 4 or 5 Stashes in the woods all pipes or Blunts.

Conservation land in town 1630 is my towns date. In that year the town was founded without a Western Border. It's also a site full of Bottle caps, Pull tabs and buried cans.

Thought of that but since I was posting in Todays finds for that day I thought I'd slip it in here.

That spoon is insane, never seen a 1600's spoon complete, except for the ones Ahab found a few years back (and got banner for)!!! Your spoon is easily the best find in the bunch. The shoe buckle is also a great find, rare to find them complete.

Funny, I guess I'm showing my age with that comment. I figured it was a hands free attachement. FWIW, its been 30 years since I smoked that stuff. And yes, I have used a roach clip.

Right up there with you. I smoked last night, killed off 1/2 my DVR list. Just never roll anymore. Went back to the hill again today skunked No silver, no relics, plenty of Bottle caps and a handfull of clad maybe a wheatie or 2. HH everyone
