Yes, you can put the ammo can lid in a box and make it a TB, but it needs a catchy name to be effective. 'Metro Pecan: Cracked'? 'Metro Pecan: My slice of the Pie'? Or maybe just 'Lost Lid'?

Hummm. So, yes you have some history right there. Can we put the ammo can lid in a plexiglass case and call it a TB?

It was in plain sight and had a combination lock on the box with the combination in the web page. Someone riped the lid off and emptied the contents. The empty shell was on the tree for a long time after that. Finally, about a year ago, the tree was cut down and the field plowed. I assume the box was removed with the tree, but since the lid was ripped off and discarded earlier, it was in the field for you to find. Wow. That is some cool little history right there! I was wondering if the rest of the box might be in the ground there. Now I know it isnt. So everything fits together nicely and the mystery is solved! :) Looks like we did find the lid from that cache then. It is interesting that we found the lid almost precisely at the coordinates... not more than a few feet off... considering it was plowed into the ground. Fun stuff!
