Well guys went back to that old house tear down. I got a nickel trifecta and a Sterling back piece of a pocket watch. Trying to find what the hallmark is not sure if itโ€™s sterling 123 or 128. Also found a unmarked silver piece, a button that has โ€œP. B. Co Patented Dec 9 1924โ€
on the back and 2 wheaties one 1928. Great day for me. Thank you for looking and any help on that hallmark will be appreciated. IMG_2481.JPG IMG_2482.JPG IMG_2483.JPG IMG_2492.JPG IMG_2484.JPG IMG_2485.JPG IMG_2486.JPG IMG_2487.JPG IMG_2488.JPG IMG_2490.JPG

Thank you guys Iโ€™ll be back out there hopefully tomorrow if I can get enough work done. Iโ€™m trying to identify that hallmark as we speak. No success so far.

Nice going on the sterling pocket watch case and what looks like a match safe case.
The # on the case is just a manufacturing ID for the size of the case or type and nothing to do with the quality as sterling says its .925.

I love the little carved homestead in the pocket watch case. Maybe that's what the owners home looked like. Would be cool to find the history of it. Your other finds and oldie nickels are great. Congrats!
