Went out Sunday to the old school house where I dug the coin purse earlier this summer. Got 6 wheats, a 1947 silver dime, a 1942 silver war nickel, an old gold plated ring with about 97% of the gold still there, a big brass bicentenial pendant, 2 jack knives, a Crown Royal bottle, and not shown is an 1863 Civil War Patriotic token. She is soaking and I will post a pic later!

Hit a few old sites today and got some goodies too! Here is a 1907 "O" Barber dime and 3 wheats

Here is a nice old piece of plate I picked up. Look at the detail!

Here is a neat little crock I dug. I got a signal dug down and seen it. Knew for sure it could not be whole, but it is! Looks like a small honey pot? It is 4 1/2" dia. and 5" tall. It does have a crack in the back, but still whole! :)

At another old site there was an old fallen in house, and I got these 9 insulators off the house! I also got 4 of the hangers.

Here is a single one. They resemble the top of a cork top bottle. You can even see several bubbles and other imperfections in the glass!

Those insulators are really something!

but then when old farts like me were young we carried a jack knife - as a tool and as a game (Mumbly Peg) and we even took them to school and played with them on the school grounds - no expulsions, no teachers dirty looks, etc.

Congrats Mike on the finds.
