Buttons and Thimble

[TNGUNS]

Well been sick as a dog. Think it is Distemper. Ha ha....Did get out for about 45 minutes and got a very small broken pewter spoon, thimble and some flat buttons at home site I found Thursday eve.



May have TheCannonBallGuy look at this one. Think it is a little older. Can only make out "LONDON"


Drilled this one with shovel....."ouch"
Back mark says "GOLD COLOUR SURFACE" and "FINE" inside of that


Pattern on front ....Cant make out Back Mark



The back mark on this one says "WARRANTED TREBLE GILT"


Thimble with plow damage



Tiny broken pewter spoon .....assume it was for child



And of coarse.....NO COINS

Very nice relics! Those have some history to them.....looks like you found a good site there!

I have been accused of having distemper a few times, usually when I don't get to go detecting as often as I would like. Those are some pretty good finds for only 45 minutes of hunting. I always like seeing thimbles. Hopefully a few coins will turn up next time.

Nice Finds!

Sent Erik in NJ a PM teasing him about trading the thimble for the ole junky one he found in the UK. His is incredible.

I am sure some Pioneer TN woman was plowing, nursing a child, and sewing at the same time when she lost it. TN women can multitask with the best of em.

Spoon has me puzzled.....very small. Wonder if it was for child, sugar, or just a spoon.
