Whites M6
- Primary Interest:
- Relic Hunting
Bought a used White's M6 and stopped at friends house (summer boarding house 100 years ago) for my first time out. Found the usual stuff (cool 1957 dog tag. Not military. Fido registration). A neighbor stopped by with a story of being mad at her husband a few years ago, and throwing her wedding ring "somewhere that way". Found the gold ring. Not quite a "true find", but I'll still lay claim to finding gold my first time out.
My second time was the usual wheats and a two Indian heads, but also found 1837 silver half dime. Very cool.
Yesterday (third time out) my partner and i came home with some post 1900 coins (one silver dime), a silver brooch(broken), a possible silver bracelet (gotta test it), a silver serving spoon, horseshoe, and what's in the pics below.
Not sure what it is, but looks like a knife scabbard, or the lower half of a sword scabbard. The piece with the ring on it is made of the same material and design as the scabbard, so it must go with it. Line design (two on one side/three on the other) look hand done, as they are imperfect.
I gotta find out the age of this. To me, it's way high on my cool factor meter. I'm now officially addicted....
