    Gold & Silver Thimbles And 1736 Coin!

    I thought I would show you all some of my better finds from the past.
    I found this Gold thimble at a 1700's house back in 1996. I also found this 1736 VOC coin near by the same day!
    The Gold thimble made the Best finds of 1996 issue of W&E magazine. You can click here to see the write up.

    Also, here is a Silver thimble I found at another site in 1992.
    I will post more of my finds from the past soon so check back.
    I hope you enjoy seeing these!

    Now that is some thimble, gold is so hard to find, finding something like that is a real pleasure. The silver thimble is a nice find as well. Brian C.
