Ham Bone :confused:

[csolley]

Well I was out last Friday MDing around an old shed (1930's) on my property. I concentrated near where a privy/outhouse was located. I found plenty of old nails and then got a good dime signal - down about 4" I found remnants of a Mason jar lid - appeared to be zinc with some milky blue glass. It appeared the jar was buried upright and I thought yee haaa maybe some coins are in there. To my surprise I pulled this out of the hole....
