Day 2 Vacant Lot

[Dan W Wa.]

The day started out a little drizzly being in Washington State of course, but soon cleared for a nice day of detecting. So Gina and I hit the vacant lot for the second time.

Vacant Lot

It didn't take long and we were digging signals, the first one was canslaw but I found this rock in the plug, It seems to be worked but I'm no expert on the matter. I will leave it to one of you who knows better.

Worked Stone?

Not long after I dug this great Token, and let me tell you I was a happy camper

Seattle Municipal Railway Token

Gina dug what appears to be part of an old purse.


Oh ya and a Sterling Heart pendant. I knew there was silver there. LOL


A few other finds for the day include a Silver plated baby spoon, Gem single blade razor, Metal flower frog, Crystal bottle stopper,eight wheat's the oldest being a 1917 S (pictured with the stopper), 2 marbles, Copper Bracelet, .75 in Clad, One Pull Tab and a bunch of scrap.




Gina and I had a fun day of digging we hope you did too.

Nice lot!!!Cool razor.
I heard, if the ground is a little wet your machine will detect deeper.

I managed to get out here in Olympia today after the rain and got a spoon too. Good day for spoons in the northwest!

Glad you had a good day. Sure looks like a worked rock to me, hide scraper probably. Nice razor, found a handle just like that, they sure are ornate.

Very nice finds there. The rock does look like it has been worked on, maybe for scraping? Still you guys went out did some detecting and found some keepers too!

Way to go you two. I love sites that turn up a big variety of finds like you found. Great hunt.
Any markings on the back of the spoon? Seems like most old spoons found were made by the Wm. Rogers company.
That stopper is so cool.
Congrats,
MM

I should be spending most of friday and saturday in city park her in Oly if you happen to find yourself in this neck of the woods, after that I'm headed south so these two days will be my last hunts in Washington.

Very cool assortment of finds. I especially like the little German Luger. I am a gun nut.

Nice finds. I love vacant lots. The variety of objects is always a surprise. - Jim

Nice site and pictures. Really like the little pistol. It might be a watch fob. They gave them away when you bought a real hand gun. I have a watch fob one that is worth around $200. You might check it out.

Thanks everyone, this site does seem to have a variety, and we always like to find the odd ball stuff.

Does the lead in a crystal bottle stopper allow a MD to detect it?
