@mcrfuse "GEMS"(not ROCKS) are a lot harder to find and you have to be in mental and physical shape to find gems, gold, silver, ect. You have to actually get off your ass and do research on whats what when going out and actually finding gems. Its more of a treasure hunt and you dont need Big bucks to acuire a gem like a coin. Just knowledge, physical health, and patiance will get you very far in gem collecting. And if you happen to find a nice gem or mineral you can get very big bucks for them.
@21cglock Well I guess that makes sense. But wouldn't you need to find a few diamonds and then spend money cutting them to make the same amount of money as you would if you just found a few gold coins medal detecting?
@mcrfuse Persons that go for gems usually go for gold. Over here where i live if you find OLD coins you cant take them with you. I guess its more for the treasure hunt then for the money.Some states even prohibit the commercial use of minerals or sell without a permit. So thats why people go for whats available and whats LEGAL to take out of "FEDERAL LAND". Over here its illegal to even ride an ATV on forest property without a permit! Hell with these law makers! Freedom my arse!
The tool or bone looks like it may have been sharpened and used as a knife or that may have been the handle and it may have been a hammer of some sort. It depends were you found this if it was in a stream or river then that may have been a knife that was made out of stone and was very sharp but has been weathered.
nice collection where you found them i will do that too i live in netherland but cand find no where but i go this summer on holiday to turkey maybe i find there
Bone will feature a distinctive texture, medium brown in color with pores of the bone often filled with agate. You might want to get a few books to add to your collecting hobby, Agates of the Oregon Coast (a pocket guide for anything found on the Pacific coastline) by Myers & Petrovic and Oregon Fossils by Orr.

this guy must be a loser if he collects stuff like that. Well, thats only if thats the only thing he does all day, if he does other stuff that could acually give him a life the nvm.
@54321izzy67890 ....@54321izzy67890 ... I rather enjoy spending time outdoors with my kids,& yes I have more hobby's than you can count with out taking your shoes off. Mining for natural minerals is a lost art. Mining is what built our country. Then helped lift us up from the first depression.......There are those that relish the past, & those that are condemed to repeat it.
@twostrokeblusmoke Absolutely! So many people stick their kids in front of a TV and call that parenting. I recently moved to Arizona, where I found a lovely canyon full of agates and minerals i can't identify, where my kids and i go to enjoy the desert and the rocks we find there. Now we are trying to find out what exactly to do with our treasures. we'd like to make jewelry...bookends...anything lol! Where do I begin???/
@63shaun ... Valuable minerals, & semi precious gems can be found all over the US. Most are mined from solid rock. Or eroded from rock by water where it can be panned or sluiced. Most of My finds are from the North Eastern US.
I found out the tool is actually a bone. If you touch your tongue to a petrified bone it will stick like Velcro. I got that info from a world leading paleontologist. I need to have the bone studied further, I believe it may be a jaw bone to a sea turtle.
Yes I have both Tourmaline and amethyst. I've never mined for sulphur crystal before tho.
o.. to me, it just looks like, perhaps a stone, from Rock.. held Naturally in a Certain Position, and ground to Smooth, over Time.......but.... me no Expert of Rocks.!!.....lol.
it is a hand tool my friend. Scraper for scraping the hide of connective tissues etc. May have been used as a pottery tool as well. You may want to check the area you found it in for others like it. Good luck okay?
