Muddy,
Fantastic collection Big Guy! :thumbsup: I just finished drooling. :tongue3:
Any pictures of the "Privy Prostitute"? :icon_queen:
Nice collection of dog vaccine tags. What's the oldest year you've found so far?
Great post,
MM

I don't recall if I have any older ones in the safe, but one of the pictured ones that looks like a dog head is 1912. No pics of the 'lady', but unless you like dark, skinny and somewhat-bathed, I don't think you would enjoy the pics :wink:
No thanks. I remember her. She was too much for me to afford. :tongue3:

BINGO, I see you have met her too! Why didn't you call me when you were in town??? ;D

WOW! I'm so impressed... I've only found a "vintage" (haha) 1981 penny and trash so far! :)
 

I have to say that NC has been very good to you guys. Keep on finding that great stuff..Matt
 

This was my best find in 2008! Cannonballs get the blood to rushing for any relic hunter and I found two in 2008!

1863 Springfield Type 1 Rifled Musket. Found in the bargain bin at the local gun store. It was apparently converted to shotgun duty at some point in the last 146 years. Still, the lockplate is a dated part and 1863 is a very good year!
I love it like Beyonce loves stretching notes.
