  • What's in the hole man?

    I work public spaces almost entirely and I always get asked what did you find.
    Or have you found anything good today.
    Yesterday though a throwback from the sixties asked whats in the hole man.
    And to tell you the truth this time even after spot cleaning I didn't know.


    After hours of electrolysis and tumbling all night it turns out to be a Canadian quarter.


    There are other times when we know exactly what we are looking at.

    And just a little cleaning is needed to confirm the date.

    Sometimes the objects identity is distorted but the time period it comes from can be guessed at.
    I think this is a soldier with a "Tommy Gun" :dunno:

    And once again back to those finds where we can only guess at what it really was, or should I say is.
    These were found together. The copper piece is a fishing spinner but the hook shaped piece appears to be hand forged.


    Yesterdays junk was minimal.

    And gas was indeed covered.

    And yes I got my keepers.

      Bruce, all I can say is you have way too much time on your hands :rolf:  :rolf: (pun intended)
      I know what it takes to find that much..... But I enjoy seeing it.! Great haul :woohoo:
      Look to the ground for it holds the past!
