On the last couple of hunts I came up with some lead toys.
A man riding a motor bike, the Flash (you can still see some good color on his suit),
and a water bird.
Very good condition considering they have been  in sea water, perhaps for 30-40 years.
I love them

Nice finds, Nickel_n!   Great  I have found a few lead figures, but never a complete one...  always had a piece or section corroded off.

Spending most my life in the SW and Over Seas, I've never found goodies like that.

Those Led Toys played in the Game of the Civil War as a Source of Lead.

Not Many got away.

very nice.   Depending upon the paint job, the motor bike would have been either a military messenger or a telegraph messenger.
