Back at it after a few years....

Hi All, I was a member here probably over 6 years back and have not been around. I bought and sold my Whites metal detector back then, lost interest until now. I have been lurking in the forums the last month or so and have been getting the itch to get back into it.

So, I borrowed a Ace 250 and have been just playing around in my yard here and there the last couple weeks. My house was built in the 1750's in Eastern CT so I have been hoping to find something... I was finding nothing but old nails and foil the first few times out, digging everything.

Today I went out, changed some setting and only dug good clean hits and finally found some cool stuff. Trying to post pics now, not a great pic, the spoon is .925 Sterling.

That is just the cooler stuff. I also found some clad, some junk, couple nails, 3 keys and some sort of small crank handle, it is soaking trying to get the dirt out of it.

Looks like some real cool stuff please try to take a better photo or two.
What I think is the spoon looks like it might be a tea strainer.
Is that a pocket watch cover?
And the object with the
hole a coin?

Not a pocket watch cover, it is about 3" diameter.
The item with a hole is a button, everything worn off it.
