My First Then Another One Pops Up

[dank1296]

Been going at it over a year now with the Legend. Old homeplace in some pines planted 3-4 years ago so its thick. Found it on Historicalaerials site. Would never had known it was there. Late 50s photo showed what looked like old building site. Punched through the wire grass and briars and found it. Pile of rocks and bricks. Found usual plows and other farm stuff. Got in the area of what was probably the front porch. Hit a 37-39 on legend small target finally. Bout 8 inches down found my first thimble but was pretty well crushed. I was happy though. Next signal 10 feet away same VDI and bout 6 inches down another thimble in better shape. After clean up later The crushed one was a Barker Thimble and the other was unbranded but had Industrial Health and Life Insurance Atlanta Ga Embossed on it. Kinda neat found in Warren County Ga. Not much online on either one. Also found a 1906 IHP my 5th. When cleaning up always hoping for that 1877

Bet they were sitting on a porch sewing and thimble fell and went through a crack in the wooden deck. Two of mine I dug were under the porch wood pile. Good finds!
