OUCH!

[2ndoldman]

I haven't posted a daily find in some time because other than Gas money
and a bit here and a bob there, there has been nothing worthy of a post.
Hit up some of my favorite homeless spots and the finds were worse than dismal.
One days pickings

A busted military button.

And 2 finds from near an old nunnery. First is a silvered candle holder.

And a celebration of their 100th year.

Today was somewhat better. It started out a a school I have never really spent any time at before.
And this was the first keeper.


The next target of note was a two for one.  Both silver. PS in Canada coins were silver until 1967 .

Mother nature called so I changed locations and things improved somewhat.  :blush:
Mundane and stuff first. Just to draw it out don't you know. 
Recyclables.

And gas money.

This one on the left had me going at first as I was in the same place where Micheal ( a friend and fellow MDer) pulled his 1795 4 reales.
Just like the US coins they are both copper clad and rang up just like silver.


Then I did hit silver. A nice little ring.

And here's the silver for the day all together.


Well by now it's 4 o'clock and starting to rain and I head for the trash can to empty out the garbage.
Along the way I hit this nice round ball at 3"

And this is also where the big ouch comes in not 50" further I get another penny signal at 2".
The pinpointer is picking it up at the surface so I open up a small plug but nothing.
Dig a little deeper and wider, now the signal is intense.
Move more dirt out of the way and I see brass.
Grab the large Lesche and pop this out of the ground.
I have no idea if it is real or a modern replica. But someone had a real hate on for this one for sure.
BIG PS here CHASE I am keeping this one. :woohoo:

That is one great relic find!

All your finds are great Bruce. The first pic??? Well I have cleaned that up myself. I am not sure why? Well just to make sure kids do not get stabbed.
Thanks for sharing! Just don't understand why people are not responsible?

[Hoss]

awesome finds I am with Chase and also with Ron be careful the glass pipes may be a hazard but the needles are medical waste and should be disposed of with great care. Man what is wrong with people?
That Pipe hawk is special I bet that made your day

[2ndoldman]

I am very careful with those needles guys. I wear gloves at all times and give them to the city workers for proper disposal.
Matt you can bet your boots that that was my find of the day. :woohoo:  :woohoo:  :woohoo:
It was found at an old Catholic nunnery here in Victoria. I can see them hating everything native.
Can you picture an old catholic nun beating the crap out of a native tomahawk.
So here's hoping it's authentic.
