Last week I took the family up north for our summer vacation where last year I found a copper indian arrowhead. This year I found a couple more old relics. The first is a Copper trade bracelet. I was thinking it might be old because it was hand made and has some great patina on it so I talked to some "experts" who do a lot collecting of this sort of thing and they thought it was probably not Native American but likely from fur traders. There is plenty of activity of both fur traders and indians in this particular area. Whatever it really is I like it a lot and will go nicely in my collection. There is also a valve stem cover from a Model T and an old thimble.

The second old relic was a tinkling cone which is definitely Native American. Quite a few of these have been found in this area with many examples being donated at the local historical museum.

I also found a nice example of a Canadian 5 cent silver from 1893 (fish scale). This is the second for me this year!
