    weird lead dog

    Got out today a bit after work. no coins Didn't find much. this dog made of lead.....thought it was a piece of slag when I first looked at it, very heavy for its size. thought it was interesting enough to post. I would like to know how old it is. everything else I generally find here is old. I found a big horse buckle. I left it in my pouch and I am too lazy to go out to the truck to get it.

    Maybe a Pug?
    What did it read on the e-trac?
    You better delete that picture of you holding it with your bare hand--EPA will raise your healthcare insurance premiums

    Nicklehead- If I remember correctly it was in the range of 11-15/35 but because of its size, it hit really hard.

    It is. I had one that was painted when I was a kid.
    I've traveled a long way, and many of the roads weren't paved.

    When I saw the picture that is the first thought that entered my mind too. Buster Browns were kids shoes, I remember wearing them and even watched a TV show sponsored by them in early 1950's.
