Those are all interesting finds and thanks for the responses. I would rather find a fresh body or skeleton than a rotting corpse anyday

I guess the wierdest find for me was a human skull I found on Thanksgiving day 2006. Was detecting the woods near my house. It was the same site I had hunted twice before and never noticed it. I had actually walked with two feet or so of it before and never knew it. I only had an hour and a half to hunt. Then I was to leave for the in-laws for T-day dinner. Decided to wait until the next day to call the cops. They asked me about when I found it and didn't question why I waited.

Jeff, I have cut my finger too. Not bad, thankfully. Sure gave me the 'willies' when I felt my finger run across it. I always fear reching in and grebbing a big 'ol slice of glass.
