Farm field and fairground hunt......

[TwoRivers]

Yesterday I hunted a farm field with my friend Andy, we made a few finds which were good. Andy found a large cent year 1823 and some buttons...As for myself I found a small button, a toasted 1800s five cent coin, another coin toasted - half penny? The best find I had was a colonial sterling silver spoon, the spoon part was not attached.

Today I hunted an old fairground in town which yielded 2 war nickels and one Rosie dime.........

Thanks for looking........John in Virginia

Nice digs. Shame the whole spoon was not intact but, still a neat pice of silver.
