Some Favorite Turf Finds From The Past Year Or So And A Couple From Almost Five Decades Ago.


Recommended Posts

Most of the items shown came from older home yards and a site that was used for many years for picnics and weddings and other celebrations mostly by the old Italian families that lived and worked in the Hop fields and early zinfandel vineyards and so forth.The Army boxing belt buckle and the elks tooth pendant were found by me in a local park in the small town where I grew up around 1975ish.

Awesome collection of relics, Doc! That probable watch fob or medal looks familiar for some reason, but I can't think of why right now. Since there are initials engraved on it, I would guess it was from an 1800s fraternal organization. Great finds!

Wow, Doc! 🏆

Some incredible finds. Wish I had 50 years of stuff and could do a great post like this but...

... Everything I've found detecting is here already🤣

Thanks for some beautiful and interesting relics. I think my favorite is the Army one, but I'm biased. 😀
