Been super busy. Catchup Post #6

This is the sequel to Post #5. Pic 1 This shows finds from one of my old reliable sites. I find things there every time. It's all mixed in with square nails, bottle caps, and scrap metal going down to about 8". One of the lead seals is from the International & Great Northern Railway. The "ice" token is from this small town's original ice company. Pic 2 is from my home town and found a nice Sterling crucifix. Jesus fell off shortly after finding it. The ring is .925. My Merry Widows collection is growing rather large. Pic 3 is again from my home town, different site. I found another large mother-of-pearl button here, too. The white star fob is from the 10th National Convention of something that was at San Antonio in 1928. Pic 5 is from a weekend of detecting: Ooh, that eagle cuff button looks old but the back is missing. More research needed. Doll's leg, .925 ring, 1929S and 1925D wheats, and a no date Mexican large cent. This gets me to March 2022.

Not sure if I want to make any comments since Jesus fell off his rocker…….

The International and Great Northern Railroads joined in my hometown in 1872 and merged, later to become part of the Missouri Pacific system. We were a Division point.

They built the railway and most of downtown in my hometown beginning in 1872. It saved our town from obscurity after the loses of the Civil War.
