So far this year events have conspired against me :girlcry: I've only put in three or four short hunts.
However, I did find a few nice bottles, which are not my usual fair. An 1886 Canadian cent, 1922 dog tag, Washington quarter, some mercs and wheats....and a few other odds and ends. More snow today...so I guess things won't pick up anytime soon.
Interesting, that dandy tombac looks perfect....the light doesn't really show its wonderful condition. I guess those things were turned.
I also found some more trumpet parts on a football field I've been hitting. Thanks for looking!

congrats on a great bunch of Buttons and coins. That Canadian Penny was a cool find.
That dog tag is cool too. I live in that town. (only in a different state)

Nice old dog tax tag Drew , yes some of the tombacs were turned on a lathe as some were "turned" on a machine that etched the fronts into those wonderful carved looking "snowflake" designs.

ps. nice oxknob !!

Nice job Drew and love the tombac and old dog tag. I'd consider finds like that a bonus given the time of year. Ironically, I just pulled a Q. Vicky Canadian LC just yesterday. I'll post some pics soon.

Nice digs Drew. Nice looking tombac, you can see the spin marks. Those Canadian LCs are turning up for everyone but me :envious:

Pretty cool dog tag too!

WTG Drew. Finding bottles intact can be a rarity.
