    Old Church 1847-1853

    I found these while looking for a site of an old log church that was built in 1847 and burned about 1853! I’m trying to discover the exact location of the Church. Some of these are definitely after that time but some seem to be from that era. All this was found in a 30 ft diameter space on a 2...

    Posted in the Civil War Forum also. Went to what I thought was an old homestead today, but there was absolutely nothing there! I drove about a 1/4 mile down the road and saw two old cedar trees standing out in the middle of a pasture. I already had permission from the landowner so I drove out to...

    My 2 Cents!!!

    Had a quick 2 hour hunt this morning while waiting on Keith to go this afternoon. I was headed back to the truck after not finding anything worth while, when I hit a good consistent 70 on my Fisher F4. Pinpointed it at 4 inches, dug it up and saw green! I was thrilled to pull this 1865 two cent...

    [attachment 354547 2-3-18sm.jpg] Got out for a while today, was going to go fishing, but when I got to the pond it had 6 inches of ice, so I went metal detecting instead! The ground was still a little bit frozen, and I had hunted this place about a half dozen times and didn't find anything...

    J. C. Higgins 42 inch Rod and Reel

    I was looking around my garage and remembered this J. C. Higgins 42" overall length Rod and Reel in perfect condition that I picked up somewhere years ago. The rod itself is 32 inches. I've googled it and can only find 4 1/2 ft. rods on J. C. Higgins? Could this be a demonstrator rod, one used...

    U.S Sterling Silver Pin

Thinking the pin may be from the same era, since there is not a period after the S? I looked up WWI and WWII US pins and the ones...

    Any idea what this is? I vaguely remember seeing one. May be a Pocket Piano, it makes different sounds when you run your thumb over it.
