The "borrowed" AT Pro comes through for me again

[JimmyCT]

This time the AT Pro pulled this seated dime out of the hole with some type of clasp. I am pretty amazed at the abilities of the AT Pro seeing next to iron and I feel that is why this dime was missed by the hundreds of detectors that hit this old park. I love borrowing this machine!

Pretty nice find again. I guess if you can borrow a A T you don't need to buy one, but making finds like you are with it, I'd be thinking hard about buying one. Good one! HH jim tn

[Grubstake]

So! Your doing so well! Don't you think you need to quit barrowing and buy your own? Just a thought. I hate to loan my detectors. Grubstake

 

[John-Edmonton]

Nice!

Joe,

The clasp is really a Hutchinson Stopper.


Thanks everyone for your kind comments.


The credit goes out to kaolinwasher for correctly identifying the piece as a Hutchinson Stopper

Charles G. Hutchinson invented and patented the Hutchinson Patent Stopper in 1879 as a replacement for cork bottle stoppers which were commonly being used as stoppers on soda water or pop bottles

Naaaa My relative doesn't mind (it's my dad's ) he is real good about it and is happy to loan it to me. When he is ready, he asks for it back lol. Call it the "Community AT Pro". I am only a couple miles from him so it is no big deal. Although you are right, I do need to pick one up.

So! Your doing so well! Don't you think you need to quit barrowing and buy your own? Just a thought. I hate to loan my detectors. Grubstake

re: Hutchinson Patent Stopper -
Funny, I found one of these the other day, too. I really want to find one in the old 'blob-top' bottle, preferably with a local bottler's mark! (hint, hint )
