Came across a near complete wick feed from an oil lamp today. Usually a sign that an area will produce.

Also came across an unidentifiable disc. I'm getting pretty good at these. It is about the size of a quarter. Pretty sure it is a token. Can barely make out some writing on it. Best I can tell it says WHISKY, so maybe a token for whiskey. Will have to see if I can clean it up.

Two Indian heads today. One is a semi-key date. One cleans up pretty good. Unfortunately the one that cleans up well is not the semi-key date.:BangHead:

Also found a ring. Quick skip of a heart beat as it first came out of the ground with the unmistakable glint of gold. But quickly realized only plated.

Awesome finds, i am sure the are plenty more items there waiting to be found, GREAT RECOVERIES!
 

Yes, that's the way if often goes. But sooner or later, you get both the key-date in the right condition.

A couple Indians and a token is a good hunt imo! Most of my Indians looks rough too, especially the older ones. Either way I still like finding them. I like your screen name btw.
