Old Homestead Treasures from the Land of Oz

[Hombre]

Howdy Y'all................

I'm post'n pictures for the first time, hope it turns out OK. I'm from south central Ks. and these silver coins and relics have been dug this year at various old homestead sites. I run various Tesoro & White's machines,they are both great "brand names"and don't I prefer one over the other,I just pick two and off I go.More important than Machine choice, is location,location,location,just like real estate. I don't do much research. I just knock on the doors of the homes that appeal to me. HH............Hombre!!!

hi hombre. that's a nice haul of relics and coins you have. they all look to be in good shape too. the crossed sabres pin is really nice too, i know it's a cavalry hat pin, but from what unit/time period? my guess is indian war period, but i might be wrong. the sailor's sweetheart locket is really nice too, and a great find as well. is it silver? great job, hombre, good pics and finds, hh,

Howdy Fellow Relic Hunters:

I'm not a dedicated relic hunter, I just find a few when I'm looking for old coins. Thanks for your kind replys. I would like to thank my oldest son, Chris, for his expertise in computers and digital cameras, and helping me to get this post up in the forums.

Questions & Answers: First ( Grey Ghost ) The 13th Regt. calvary pin, the 13th regt. was originated in 1901 in Ft. Mead South Dakota. The 13th cavalry was transfered to Ft. Riley Kansas in 1911, under the command of John J."Black Jack" Pershing. The 13th Regt. fought in the Punitive Expedition against Poncho Villa in Mexico in 1916. In 1936 the 13th cavalry became part of the 7th cavalry Brigade ( Mechanized ). Formed officially in 1940.
