danielp Posted August 13, 2009 Author Share Posted August 13, 2009 Dang, Daniel, you make it look like you can just scoop 'em up by the hatfull! If only it was that easy. I'm going to have to get some kneepads after crawling around out there without them. Feels like I took a tenderizer to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jax Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Nice finds. That tooth next to the coin looks like perfect one. The knee pads are a must! Last time i was there, i crawled and my knees hurt for days. That gravel/glass is sharp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racevw112 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 We had a geat time today. Daniel's tooth has my vote for find of the day. It's just awesome in person. I believe everyone found something cool to add to their collection. We found several old jars/bottles some dating to 1912. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Justin,it seems to be metal.The cap is not a screw on type .It appears to be a snap on type cap.Now just how to get the cap off without damaging the piece???? Ok, got the cap off and "SURPRISE" it's an antique lipstick dispenser.No Gold,Secret Microfilm,Cartel Fodder,Gems...just a toss away from a long time ago.
