So 1 and 2 were found quite a bit away from each other(75feet) In the mud at low water way out in this cove. Where there was an English landing in the 1600's sometime. But you know, probably people from all times as well. Fishing,canoeing, clamming etc.. no houses though, just woods.
What is number 1
What is number 2

Does #1 have a design on it? or am i seeing things?(rust pattern)

Do 1 and 2 go with each other? were they together in the same part #3? Although they could fit together better, post on #1 could be wider to fit into slots on #2 better. And the nubs on the outside of #2 i would think should go on the other side. And #1's diameter could be bigger.
But at the same time the holes line up, so to speak.

Awesome BuckleBoy!!! i cant wait to see this book! I'm sure you have most of this info already but just in case there are some pipe makers marks you haven't seen or some new info, here you go. Ill put them all in thumbnails at the bottom, if you need to blow them up to see them better.

Thanks so much! Actually the dating equation and method only works for sample sizes of 900 pipe stem fragments or more! And that’s according to Ivor Noel Hume. Detectorists have shared this for YEARS but who has dug even 1/3 of that sample size from one site?? 😂 So it’s grossly inaccurate without a Large number of pipe stems. As you can see, their sample size was 8,000 pipe stems lol. So I’m mentioning the equation in the book but also dismissing it as horribly impractical and even misleading for the hobbyist who finds five stems and thinks he can draw a conclusion. Another thing to ponder: one of the bore sizes spans 150 years, including the fringe date ranges not listed on that graphic. Lol. Just an FYI ;)
