Handful of lunch finds, 1 wheat away from 100 FTY

[pa-dirt_nc-sand]

Found a couple suspenders buckles today. I've found about a half dozen so far in the old farm woods this year. Don't know much about them, but they are a welcome signal in the sea of old shotgun shell ends.
Also found 2 old wheats bringing my silver coin to wheat ratio to 29 - 99 FTY. I'll go through periods where I find 10 wheats in 5 or 6 hunts, but then I'll score a silver or two. The rolling ratio helps reduce that "will I ever find another silver coin feeling" when I am on a dry spell.

So... I'm expecting an old gold coin to pop out of the ground after I find my next wheat and reach 100. If silver to wheat ratio is around 29-100 then gold coin to wheat should be 1-100, or at least let's hope so!

Good luck out there!

Those suspender buckles are way cool. Hope your next signal is wheat 100.

Gold can be really fickle, took me a while to find my first and then a couple weeks later, got two in one day and three for the month. I had been struggling to find very many wheaties and have found eight this week. You seem to be in a good area for them and the shotgun brass. I got plenty of the shotgun brass, bullets and fired cases, even live rounds. congrats on your finds

Cool find on the wheats! Next up will be the gold! Best of luck out there!

I am a lover of old brass suspender buckles. You have a very nice pair there mate. With Wheaties & old buckles like that around there must be a silver coin in your future.

Did you find those buckles near each other? They don't look like a match but they could be related, as in a buckle/related hardware of (one side) of a "set" of suspenders.
If you didn't find them near each other, I would guess you have to different suspender company designs from some time before 1900.

Found on 2 different farms. Thanks for the insight!
