    Here's another button I need help on please...

    My uneducated guess is that it's "2nd Artillery" and my other uneducated guess is that it's U.S. but what era are we looking at here? C.W., W.W.1? Thanks for your help, Neal

    Ever find a ring this big???

    This ring is 1.5 inches in diameter and was sold as a sovineir by the Texas Giant Jim Tarver back in the 1930's to supplement his circus sideshow income. Jim was 8 feet 6 inches tall and died at an early age of 35 from diabetes. When I dug this ring it was dark and I was sure it was just a piece...

    Park finds from Wednesday...

    It rained off and on all day but I managed to get over some goodies between the showers. The ring is silver and the button is fairly new. Sure was good to get out and dig again. HH Neal

    My Oldest U.S. Silver Coin To Date!!!!!!!

    After doing some bottle digging at one of my favorite farm field sites I turned on my detector and made a few passes down some corn rows. It wasn't long before I got a shallow penny/dime signal and when I looked down I could see this beauty sitting on top of the ground. The chisel plow pulled...

    Old School Site Turns Up Some Gold...

    [attachment 9287 MVC-029F.JPG] I got into a bean field where a school shows up on the 1875 map and dug the typical old school coins plus a bonus. That gold colored thing is a watch that actually has a solid gold case. The guts are pretty ugly but the gold is clean as it's supposed to be...

    Is this a love token?

    I'm pretty sure it's not a coin even though it's the same diameter as a dime. It's very thin and there is no reeded edge. I'm also pretty sure it's silver and I think that's a Masonic symbol under the initials. Does it qualify for a love token even though it's not on a coin? Neal

    Here's today's haul from the 1800's cabin site plus another old house...

    Robin and I started out at a virgin cabin site in the woods and I came away with 2 eagle buttons, 2 CW tokens(one is a storecard from Buchanan, MI), a button back, some heelplates and musketballs. The rest of the stuff was dug at an 1870's house site. My favorite is the tie clasp with an old car...
