    German Silver

    These finds are from yesterday and the Saturday before. The old German Silver purse was a heart thumper for a minute till I opened it and found only dirt . Only other Silver is a 46 Rosie. 21 Wheaties (1910, 13, 18D, 2 x 19, 20, 24, 37, 2 x 40, 2 x 44, 45, 46D, 3 x 53D, 57D, 58, 2 x 58D). Also recovered a pocket watch (first complete one), old button, buckle and a 42 Canadian cent.

    Coold digs! I found a mesh victorian purse one time at an old home site. I had to work a long time to get all the parts including two pieces with victoian ladies on them.
    Congrats on the neat finds!

    Nice digging, Brent. Yes, that purse would have got the ol' heart a-banging. I love the big number 5. LOL I've never seen a sheriff badge with colors on it. Sweet relics!

    Re: German Silver

    I have a badge like that... but mine is broken and it says Marshall on it... I don't know if you know, I have purses like that also... all empty :-(

    and unfortunately German silver has no silver in it at all... I was disappointing when I found that out for myself... but still great finds!
