This piece of something was barely in the ground, the rain had washed it almost to the surface.
I know it is a long shot, but any clues what it might be off of? I didn't even notice the cherub in it until I was looking at my photos. I am not sure what kind of metal, maybe pewter?

I am digging in the woods in East Texas (12 Miles of mostly woods) I am in Franklin County Texas on a private ranch. There was one homestead here in the early 1900's. I was told that there may have been a moonshine operation in a specific area here, but after 6 months of detecting, I see no proof of that. I found an area where I believe I have found a second and even a third homestead, but I can only base that on my findings. I only dig hear in the winter months, then I boot out the renters and go back to Wisconsin!
