Keep trying....
Just a guess, but I'm thinking that it possibly has something to do with cloth, maybe weaving, spinning, looming etc? I could be way off in left field though.
Not falling for that one... :-)
I found this last night at a very old property. It looks like a tool of sorts, with a indentation for a thumb and a small hook cutout on the bottom. Very heavy with a dark brown patina. Any idea what...
Dang Jared, you are killing it - good saves!
Welcome from Michigan .Great group of people here, enjoy your stay.
I knew you found something good when my phone started blowing up! It's a real beauty, I am very happy for you, now get back there and find something else!
Welcome and enjoy the group. I have only been here a short time and this is a great group of people - I'm from Michigan as well.
Fantastic KG, nice Merc too!
Thanks everyone, I think it's pretty cool.
After a long, cold, windy hunt with my good buddy Bucknut yesterday (he found some good stuff) , I stopped by my Uncle's house on my way home and dug this in his garden. This is the same area I dug...
Thanks for all the comments everyone. All I have used to clean it up so far is a nylon brush and water. I would really like to clean the sides and front better, so any tips would be appreciated. I am...
Bucknut always finds the Silver (darn him!) :lol:
Thanks Tony. It reads "PATENTED Jan.18 and Nov. 29 1870". There is actually quite a bit of documentation about this particular lock. They had Glass seals to prevent tampering, and they were made in...
Still figuring out how inserting photos work here. The 1902 is an old find, tried to delete it but can't figure out how.
Was hunting an old park with my good buddy Bucknut and found this 1800's US Customs lock. It almost blew up my Nox at about 5 inches, and I'm really surprised no one ever found it before me. I may...
Congrats on your new Nox! I just ordered one of those clips off eBay - $5.39 +free shipping.
Thanks for the comments, everyone. We just went from 60 degrees and no snow a week ago, to a bunch more snow, so the Nox will sleep until it warms up.
Wow, that's fantastic, congratulations!
Not too bad today :)

Back to the old 1868 house yesterday. Very tough hunting but I was able to dig this Buff. Date is worn, but I can see a "9" in what appears to be the last position. Additionally, I dug a 1958...
Doh!
We had a good time, and I was covered with mud when I finally left. I actually put the Nox in my kitchen sink and sprayed all the mud off the control box. My Aunt owns the house so we can hunt there...
It's all charged up and I went online and filled out the warranty. Temps are warmer and some of the snow melted (40's yesterday and today), I just may take it out and play with it at the local...
Got my Nox 800 today - waiting for the thaw...63159
