Finally!!!!!!..........

[Mike from MI "Iron Brigade"]

I have been trying to get permission at this house for 3 or 4 years! Yesterday I seen the guy who owns it at home. We got the green light, but only had about 45 mins to hunt. We went back today and did some more.

Here is the mid 1800's home.

1st day - Here are 5 wheats, one Indian Head, a key, an old fishing reel crank, and a bird band. The crank, key, and one wheat came from the bulldozed yard before we got permission at the new old house. The Indian was on top of a wheat.

Today I got 5 wheats, a coal tag, a powder flask, a key, a neat rock, a tooth came out with the small lock (looks to be a human molar)

Powder flask. Notice the fox hunter with top hat, and the dog and tree. An older man came across the road and gave us permission to hunt his mid 1800's home too!

You sure do have the gift of gab ! WTG on the finds - good luck at the other site, steve in so az

If the flask would hold water you could freeze it and see if it straightens out any. Water expands 9% when frozen, steve

trying to research it. It says contact Washington DC. But I believe it is from 1941.

 

[Mike from MI "Iron Brigade"]

I will let you know!

Now those finds are some you can really sink your teeth into. Or a least somebody did. Nice finds Mike. Just goes to show that if you keep on trying it can pay off.

That tooth is scary!!!! Like Goes4ever, I would have left in the hole. Does it have metal in it or something?
