so odd I go 3 yrs and only dig brass and aluminum thimbles and after today I have my THIRD sterling thimble this season!
I spotted an old farm that was just tore down last night, located the owner and secured permission. Not a lot of finds, but I am more than happy with the results. I will stop again when I have time and go over the heavy iron with TTF to see what I missed. Got some wheats, 1900 V nickel, and a 1930 dog tag in the shape of a dog's head. I dug one similar to this last year. And the silver thimble I was sure was going to be a silver quarter, solid 12-47 signal at 7"........
