2 Hunts...2 Hours...Tooo Rite

[cambria09]

Howdy All. Got out for an hour 2 times this wk to my new favorite site...the old same place...a 1920's era grocery store/orange grove, and the diggin' was easy.

Dug some OK by me items.

I don't know what the odd shaped brass badge-like thing is, any ideas??

Scored my third silver half...it's a bit toasty but I am still stoked!

Thanks for the view...keep your coil low and your expectations high. C9

Nice silver! Maybe some one will know what the badge thing is, you may want to post it on the what's it forum.

Great finds!

I like the half. Is that a 1914-D Lincoln?

Awesome, I am still waiting for my first silver half in the wild.

Nice half! Just got my first silver half a few days ago (58 Franklin). Gotta love that feeling when you first see something like that in the hole! Congrats!

Those would be OK items by me too. Good hunt

Hello thrillathahunt. Thanks for the reply. Nope, sadly the '14 does not have a MM, the Red Book says it's only worth 75-cents in "Good" condition...that's more than most wheats I guess.

I did dig this '21 merc there a few days before though...key date...too bad it's toast. HH C9

Nice finds, I dug a smaller version of the same medal the other day!

Your "badge" is half of a ladies sash buckle...........more nice finds!

Hello Ia.FurTrade. Yep posted it on the "What Is It" forum and the consensus is....half a ladies sash buckle. http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/what/396236-some-kind-badge.html

I thought it might be a badge of some kind because I found it near this auto club radiator badge dug a few days ago.



Goin' back today to see what still lurking below. Thanks for the reply HH. C9

very cool finds. I think the unknown item is part of a woman's sash buckle that dates to the art nouveau period (1890-1910)
