    I think I found another Copper Indian artifact and some other goodies

    Got out Monday and today and I think I found another Copper Indian point. I'll do some research but I don't know what else it can be. Monday I found a rosie and a war nickel and today along with the Copper artifact I found a Barber Dime, 2 Mercs a Rosie and 5 wheats. Weather is staying moderately nice so who knows maybe I'll make it to the new year. Merry Xmas all. Wisconsin Digger

    Yes, I agree. In all the photos I looked at it definitely resembles a knife blade. Thx WD
