I tried, and I couldn't fill up my cup at all!

I had a couple of hours to kill today and decided I'd go detecting. Since the field out behind my house was so good to me this summer, I thought that it was worth a shot again. The grass has since been punched back by the frost and the once thick clover has withered to nothing, great conditions. Most of my previous finds were mid 1800's to about the 1940's, and pretty much turn of the last century stuff. Finds were few but they were there, a few coins, buckles, and the odd nitnoid. Best find was the child's toy or dollhouse teacup and my second Vicky 25c in just as many days (take that Romeo :icon_biggrin:)

roger dodger beat me to the punch first but he got to fill his cup, in fact it runeth over
good one man, never thought I would see another one of those today

After 4 complete years of detecting I have yet to find a Vicky 25 cent. I got a Vicky 20 cent but not the quarter...not that I'm complaining!

I like the cup!

I've found a few over the years, mostly ceramic; this is the first metal one. The size is what you would expect a child to use with her dolls, unless you're just going to have a sip. I have seen others posted and most agree they are childrens toys.
