A couple of hunts

[Larry (IL)]

I got some field hunting in yesterday, no coins but the area was old for sure. Three old buttons, a one piece, 2, two piece buttons and pistol ball is all I have to show for that hunt. The rest came from a yard hunt, six wheats, a flipping coin and a foreign coin of some sorts. The Tootsie Toys are always a fun find

Good finds. I enjoy finding those old buttons just about as much as old coins.

Nice little display! Looks like spring is here. Now if someone would just tell mother nature.

That's a good assortment of finds. With buttons that old there ought to be a largie or two hiding out there.

I think there is more there to Andrew but I might have to wait for the field to be turned over again or at least try a different detector.

The ring might be from the Hartford Insurance Co. They use a stag as their symbol. The foreign coin is from Iran, late 1800's - early 1900's. Nice finds.

Nice finds Larry! The shakespeare fish is neat....rubber?

Yep, rubber, the tail was sticking out of the ground near a memorial recovery. For those who might not recognize it, it is a casting (practice) weight that came on a childs fishing pole.
