12:38 Signal

A few finds from a short Sunday hunt in a park I have never hunted. Classic 12:38 penny signal yielded a nice Tiffany 925 ring. Also found 2 buttons, one lewis and tomes, the other I wanted to find out if anyone had any idea?? I can make out the word gilt there at the bottom. The winged necklace charm I do not believe to be old as it is plated, but am unsure what it is from as well. HH!

REALLY NICE FINDS :clapping:

But Now I Have To Dig Those 12:38 Signals :rolleyes: Around Here They Are Usually Bottle Tops

Same for me they are bottle caps most of the time. Sunday my hunting partners sister dug one and it was a silver Spoon. The maker of the spoon went out of Buisness in 1860. The spoon had initials GLC on the handle. I had an 1860 map on my Iphone with the houses on it. We were right in back of 2 houses owned by the Connors. So undoubtedly the spoon belonged to one of those houses on the 1860 map.

Yes I have found many pieces of silver under the 12:40's....It can really pay to dig it all!
 
Small silver coins, such as the Canadian 5 cents silver minted before 1922, will read in that range. Also, bigger silver may read around there if there's ferrous junk nearby... the junk seems to drag down the CO number.

x2 on that. The only fishscale I found came in solid 12-38 all directions
