A friend of mine found this while tilling his garden in Wakeman, Ohio! Other half should be out there!

That's cool!! How old do you think it is? I mean what era do they come from?

Imma stop tilling and start digging! Would have been a nice one.

not sure on its age, but its got to be very old, because its older than me! I'm sure our experts will chime in on it!

Nice find!!! Good call Trev that is what i saw when i looked at it. It would have been a nice example. Still is....... good luck in finding the other half. I would ask anyone you know that hunts there if they found the other half.....................That stinks that it is broke!!! Dam nice to see though...................GTP

Great find. It looks like a modern break so as everyone has already stated, good luck reunited the piece with it's mssing half.

The other piece is still missing! His garden is only about 20' by 40', so nobody else but him (or me) will find the other piece! I will update this even if it takes 20 years!

Aren't alot of these found in burial sights already broken? Or is that bannerstones that I'm recalling....
