It Doesn't Take Much......

To make me happy
I Got a few finds today,
2 IH, a '92, & a no date,
A '52 Rosie, I rarely find silver coins!
One toasted LC, date cleared up in bottom pic, 1818.
My first Horstman Button, no backmark visible, but since the front was missing :laughing7:, I could see the mirror image backmark inside.
oh yeah, my first hallmarked pipestem, maybe 78 is a date?
And a tiny copper spoon, earspoon? or for dosing medicine? anyone seen similar?
great digs! :thumbsup:

Very cool looking finds there Herbie! :icon_thumright:
I like the small spoon, looks like the type of spoon used for taking snuff. :icon_scratch:

You have a great attitude Herbie!

I agree, unlike some of these other guys upset about 1700's buttons ::)

It's all good, right man?
I'm Happy to find anything old I can identify!
Everything is great!

Tiny spoons were made for digging out ear wax. Maybe you have one. Also, cocane was a legal drug back in the day.......... ::)

Re: It Doesn't Take Much......

Yeah I found a 1845 LC this year I placed it in an ice cream dish after boiling the peroxide , let it cool down and repeated the same procedure about 10 times . Came out excellent despite the hole it . from one of its original owners I am glad to help. ROB . Ps i do not sell my coins but with the hole in it i figured i can not due much to the value that was not done already .

The shame is, where you hunt seems to give up a lot but in such blasted condition. You do seems to collect some nice Indians.
