These finds are from 2 different sites. The 1908 barber dime, 1917 wheat, and the no date corroded buffalo nickel came from the same site and the same general area. The 1945 mercury dime, and the 40% silver Kennedy Half came from the other site.

I found a Redline Evil Weevil Hot Wheel too. It only had the 2 wheels on it when it came up. So I decided to sift the hole to see if I could find the other 2 wheels but I had no luck.

I also found a whatz-it, it’s the part marked Ford. It reminds me a part of an old glove compartment latch? Want to take a crack at it, please do.

I also found a Giant Grip Initial Belt Buckle (it was silver plated at one time), some old suspender clips and or coverall fasteners, one with a patent date of 1899.

I wacked the pocketwatch because the area was so trashy, that's my excuse:'(, the photo shows the only markings “7-350”.

Nice finds Ant. Cool relics too. I see the wildflowers are in bloom out there. A graveyard too :o Looks like a cool place to hunt
 

Outstanding post & finds, some real neat suspender part you found! Congratulations on the silver & the LC. Is that AZ or NM that you are in?
 

Your Ford part is the point from a Model T coil.
 

Thank you all very much :icon_sunny:.
I live in Southern California, so I would be in that area. Thanks for asking and good luck.


Hey welcome to T-Net, and thanks for the ID wetrock.
 

Nice finds, Anthony! :thumbsup:

It has seemed like ages since I've seen anything gold from you. Looks like the sites you're hunting are really old, so there's probably going to be more relics/old coins than the gold.

That graveyard looks spooky! :o

8) ANT! What a great assortment of finds! Love those buckles! And the marbles....and the old coins...and the pictures. ;D

SUPER hunting!! :icon_pirat:

Nana :wink:
 

Hey thanks everybody :icon_sunny:.

This past weekend was the first day of this year that I went hunting parks for gold Dan :icon_king:. I found lots of stuff, but no gold. I'm hoping to try again this coming weekend.

Thanks again you all :icon_sunny:.
 

Lots of nice finds Ant.

You have some nice sites to hunt. Digging in that sand looks easy. That is some mineralized soil there. Love them old suspender clips.
