Anyone ever found any Indian trade beads?
Yes. Found a few when I was a kid. Both blue.
Found a primitive turquoise ground flat bead as well. Found most of them in or around red ant beds.
Red ant beds were the prime area for finding trade beads. When I was a small kid (and dad was still a member of the old Texas archaeological society) we were gifted 15 gallons of ant mound dirt. We found a bead or two.
While I was doing volunteer archaeological work at Presidio Los Ades state historical site at Robeline Louisiana we wet screened all the dirt from the test pits. We found lots of beads here, by this method! All basic Venetian glass beads.
