New permission and a nice bunch of keepers

[Johncoho]

I had 2 half day metal detecting hunts at a new permission and found some keepers. 1892 Indian Head penny, 1897 V nickel, 2 silver coins 1957 dime and 1952 quarter, the other dime came back in change from a store, 1925 Buffalo nickel, a nice pile of Wheat pennies, smallest Crotal bell I have ever found, a locket, some kind of key holder, and a 1970 dog license which would normally not be anything but this one is number 2 dog for the county for that year. I will take any suggestions on this key holder or whatever it is. There are 2 pictures, one with the end open and the other, if you pull on the square on the end it will close. Marked England on the end and somewhat nicely made of brass. Happy hunting and have fun out there. That thing I wasn't sure about is a Sprenger scissors clip for a dog leash so it can be released quickly.

Nice silver and some great pennies too.

Great finds! I've seen "clips" like the one you've found on fly fishing nets. An easy one hand release mechanism while holding the fishing rod in the other.

Thanks. I can read the date on the Buff with a loop.

Nice keepers!!! Looks like your soil there is kind to those old nickels, not so much around here

 

[xcopperstax]

Congrats! The IHP is in really nice condition and the V Nickel looks pretty good too! Those are usually completely wrecked by the ground in my area.

Thanks. The nickels don't always come out so nice here. I think it depends on what has been put on the ground over the years. Fertilizers?

That's a nice couple of hunts that you had there! The IHP and V Nickel are crisp!
