    Last few hunts

    Found a 1906 IH and clay marble for my collection. The token with eagle was exciting, it's pretty cool looking. Then disappointed to see the 'No Cash Value' on reverse

    The cameo/saint thing-a ma-jiggy really made my day! Not sure what it is- will post in What is it? section w/ more pics.

    The lipstick tube is really old, so intricate, I really like it! I dug it up 10 inches deep, wedged up under a huge root. It must be over a 100 yrs old and it still smells like 'lipstick'. I found all this stuff in 3 different homesteads built in mid-1800's.

    Except for the musketball, buckshot and large cloak button- I found at the private property next to Perryville Battlefield, hunted with Hillbilly Dave and Linda last weekend

    Thanks for looking

    Very nice finds, I really like that lipstick tube looks sort of Art Deco style. The other goodies are really nice too. Artifacts like these really bring back the past in someways they are much more personal than the old coins.

    Great finds and nice photos Tana . You are doing really well with your V3 . thumbsup01 8) Those Eagle no cash value tokens must be everywhere . I've found quite a few of those exact coins and have yet to find out where they are redeemable.
    They should just have Gotcha printed on the back .
