1915 MA License Plate

Digger-Dave · Feb 26, 2017

Dennis and myself worked some old cellar holes and wooded areas yesterday afternoon.

Deep in the woods, I got this wild signal. It pinpointed larger than a target I'd usually not dig, but good targets were few and far between yesterday.

About a couple inches down I found this.
1915 Massachusetts license plate. Makes you wonder what it was mounted on and who owned it.

I'm glad I went easy with the shovel! :shock:

Very cool. I personally love finding the "Personal" items that can be tied to a real human being. Wish you could just put your hand on it, close your eyes and see who they were and how that plate got where you found it. Very nice. Maybe the Mass DMV would be able to give you some info? Who knows, Maybe they keep records back that far.
