A couple of my favorite finds are lead toys... I thought since I have not dug anything cool lately, I would at least try to start a fun thread...

Post some pictures of yours if you have dug any please, I would love to see them!! Here are some pictures of the two I dug last year...

The only indian of any type, I have dug so far..

NMSilver, those are pretty cool, that guy with the early machine gun is awesome!

Les, That coal cart is cool too! Looks to be complete, nice work, that would have been an easy one to screw up with a digger...

Anyone else got lead?

Here's a couple toys I found when I first started with my ace250. Found both of these in a park. The elephant is heavy something. Lead maybe? It's 180g and 4" long. At least i think its a toy. cool though. The little horse is very detailed and the size of a dime. Monopoly piece maybe?
