Most of this stuff was found in my first ten years. I'd say about half of it was found in one old turf field that was overlooked thru the years. Things are not panning out like the old days. Regards, gleaner.....

You just ain't kidding there. Maybe go rebury it all somewhere in some secluded field and let another detectorist think they found some sweet, unhunted, honey-hole. :headbang:

I know that there are plenty of guys out there that have found ten times more junque and crappe than this. There are still a lot of good finds to be found, and tons more kinda sorta good goodies tucked away, waiting for the clever tectorist. But it will never be the same.

Looks like some cool finds to me!
 

Great stuff!
Did you accidentally show both sides of that 8-Scallop Brunswick token?
That could be the real nice one of the bunch.
But I tend to lean towards tokens.

I showed the front of the two best. I got seven. I will send you one post parcel in a fortnight.

I love this stuff! It makes me want to get out there and hunt more than the most valuable finds, 'cause it's such a glimpse of Americana, and I actually have a chance at some of the stuff like this!!! :laughing9: Thanks for posting it all!
 

It looks a lot like my collection of junque and crappe. But each piece tells a story. If we could only figure out what story it tells. Monty
 

Monty....did gleaner tell you he dug himself out of these same holes?
