Folks, Please share some of your past finds....the more the merrier.

Folks,

I thought since a lot of people may be doing the isolation thingy it wouldn't be a bad idea to start a thread where we could share some of our past finds.

I'll get the ball rolling. Sterling silver stamp safe. Bring em on....coins, jewelry, relics, buttons, etc...

Coinstar magnet,

Great find and thanks for sharing. If you enjoy the old uk finds check out some of Crusader's posts it'll knock your socks off...lol.

Stay safe.

All of the finds above are stunning. For me I think finding my first Roman coin, a Claudius Gothicus II, 268 A.D. was by far my best find. He only lasted a couple years after defeating the Goths dieing of some kind of disease. I owe my English friends a big thank you for allowing me to go out with them

Cru' and Cru'dad rule...and don't forget Land mag...
I have followed Crusader's posts religiously....I can't imagine having the kind of access/permissions they have to the farms and fields...I don't think I could sleep

Paraphrasing Charlotte's Webb, "that's some plug!"

A few earrings I have found over the years.

Haven't been able to top this find in any category in 30 years...so far.

 

[Blak bart]

Wow...sandchip that's an incredible piece !!

 

[bill from lachine]

Sandchip,

That's quite the find!

I'm not up on native stone finds which I'm assuming it is. Did anybody in that section of the forum have any ideas as to it's origin/age?

You all sure find some cool keepers! Great thread. Here is a Lemps bottle from the Cripple Creek district. I couldn't believe I dug a six pack of these! I could picture the miners below the shaft house having a little fun! Muehlhausen was the sheriff from 1908-1911. Someone found his police badge, estimated to be worth $12,000 but I can't find a picture. Stay healthy!!!!

 

[Coinstar magnet]

Wow, just a few....you could open up a jewelry shop

 

[bill from lachine]

Ironhorse,

I'm sure you've got plenty of other past finds you're hiding up your sleeve....lol. Time to dust them off and let the others drool over them....

coinstar,

Micheal's been playing this game going back to the 1970's. He's got many more goodies that he's keeping up his sleeve....lol.

Here's a chunky men's wedding band found near a park bench I was expecting a screw cap or something similar. Weighs about 10 grams or so of 18k gold.

diggingthe1,

Great looking bottles. I'd like to see this thread go until we get over the bug so if you'd got other finds to share post em up!
