Those are beauties! Someday I'll find an American pot lid...dug for 15 years in New Hampshire and never even found a pot lid shard. Been digging in Texas now for 3 years and have found several bases, one broken English bear's grease lid, and one intact French lid.

Some English lids are very cheap. Most American lids are moderately expensive. I believe there is one lid from Nevada and it is high dollar.

Thanks so much for posting that! I've never see one in person but have heard tell of them.
