    Lady Liberty Asked me to take a Seat tonight... TWICE !!!!!

    Hello all...

    I hit Indian Park tonight 6:15... I was hoping to add a few wheats and perhaps an Indian or 2 to the collection...

    This little park (as I' have shared in the past) is located between a package store and a housing project... There are a gazillion screw caps every, on the ground, partially buried, and buried at various depths... They ring in from 24 to 42... but this park has been in place since the late 1800's...

    10 minutes in I'm working an area without grass... I'm getting a mid to upper 30's signal @ 9 that could be a rusty nail, or... *shrug*...

    7-8 the get a nice buzz on the pinpointer... Grab the next inch or two of dirt...

    Hello Ms. LIBERTY !!! Seated... 1875...

    [attachimg=1]

    Now I have a conductive signal of 15 4-5 to the left... this was a rolled up small screw cap...

    Wait!! This unmasked a nice 42-43 @ 5 just a few inches away...

    Hello Ms. Liberty !!! Didn't we just meet... 1891...

    I've never dug 2 Seated Liberty Dimes in a hunt... Heck... I've not dug more than 2 in a year that I can remember... HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY DANCE !!

    Toss in a wheatie, some deep rusty nails... some clad and the unknown object...

    [attachimg=3]

    It has a Pat Date of April 30, 1907 on the bottom...

    Any thoughts on this one...

    Looks like the mystery has been solved... The idontknow object is a smashed lipstick tube from the turn of the century...
