Another tantalizing hunt where I scored a couple more Light Horse militia buttons. I'd be so much happier with these buttons if Tony didn't find the killer one last weekend. That's now 6 of these from this one small site. Also picked up a mystery button (HSB? SHB? HBS?). I'm leaning toward HBS...but really not sure. Have found several examples online but those haven't been identified either.

Find of the day was the art deco brooch with the flapper girl walking a dog. Amazed it survived with all those spindly legs!
Lots of plating left on that! Fun hunt!

I like the brooch and buttons. Wish the knife was in better shape. I always like finding jack knives. Congrats on the finds.
