Only the face a mother could love, Greg.  A great find for sure. Where was she found?

My kiddo found it down at the local creek (Maxwell Creek) here in Murphy, TX.  Great find!

Nice find!

Never found anything that unusual, but did get a Barber Dime in change about three years ago. A common date but interesting nevertheless. Probably a kid spending their parent's collection.

Lovely find. Fortune hunting in Forest

Should have seen the look on her face when she showed it to me...priceless 

Bruse, ya, it's not pretty but what a great find for a 12 year old!  Chip off the old block head 

My thought is that is was washed out of one the old homesteads.  There are many in the area.

Worth going back and looking again, Greg. Make sure you take the kids...should bring you some luck.
