Hit the honey hole early this AM, dug up a 1900 Indian Head penny, surprisingly in good condition compared to the other coins from the area.

I dug this pendent stye button, IDK what it is. I clean it with a soft brush and mild soap and this is what I got. Any ideas?

And some other iron artifacts, I really like the square nails and keep the nice ones. I didnt post the 6 old shotgun caps or the horseshoe. The hook is really cool.

Nice finds there AC500 what did the I.H. read like for you my last one was surprisingly low even tho it shows little signs of wear in the areas I can actually see thru the crust. Read like a small square pull-tab and its not a fattie either I am puzzled thought that they usually read closer to a screw cap in the past.

I have that same flowery piece with the prongs on the back! Found it at a site that mostly produces things from the late 1600s to the early 1800s

what did the I.H. read like for you
CoinandRelicMan, it was weird at first, it rang up like the shotgun caps in the high 50's to low 60's with a 70's blip every now and then, I moved off and came at it in another direction and it was solid in 70-73 continuously. I dig all the shell caps in fear of loosing old copper and my collection shows it lol.

Thanks Guys.
