On sunday, May 2nd, I went back to the tavern site that I've been hitting. The first signal I got was 1989 Quarter, okk... 50 cents richer. about 2ft away from there I dug a 1898 Barber Quarter!!! My first silver!!! :headbang:
So, I continued onward, got some weird looking farm stuf, a oxen shoe, a fully metal chisle, the inards of a pocket watch???, some wheat pennies, and.....
I got my first Buckle!!!! :o I only have pics of the barber and buckle at the moment.
Any help with the time pieriod and type of buckle this is would help
Thanks for lookin :wink:

That first silver is a great start to the collection.

The buckle is relatively modern, not much older than the 1930s.
