    I know what it is! :jump:

    This walking stick I bought at a yard sale for 5 bucks. It is not native Indians but maybe better. A lot of research shows it is carved sharks vertebrae and considered scrimshaw. These were made by sailors during the period of 1830 to 1860 and sold at ports or given to relatives. It values at...

    Almost Eureka!!!

    Made a quick 1 and 1/2 hour hunt in one of the campsite fields after work. The clads getting scattered and thinner. I went out in jewelry mode which is suicide in these fields because the pull tabs average between 200 to 300 for every nickel.. I did manage a nickel and got a solid hit dead...

    Big clad day.

    Day off work so I decided to hit some parks. The first 2 were a little dissapointing giving up a couple bucks in clad. I found a small barkchip park that was new to me and apparently to detecting. 3 hours steady digging as my garret was singing a sweet tune. 5 hours hunting for my 1st SAC...

    This is a really old park thats been well hunted. I found my 3rd half dollar freshly lost in the sand by the swings. This is my first clad as the 1st 2 were silver.
