3-4 Weeks of Stuff...: Coins, silver, buttons, jewerly, etc...

[CousinEddie]

The last week of October my computer crashed and then Hurricane Sandy shuts things down around my way for a little over a week. Finally got a new computer. These pics are of the stuff I think are keepers from the last 3-4 weeks of hunting. 95% of the items were found in small church yards. The other 5% was found at the very few private properties I have been hammering for a long time. I hunt churches almost 100% of the time due to the great stuff and variety I find. I'll start with the coin finds and post the rest tonight after I get back from hunting this afternoon...: Dimes...: 2 x Seated Liberty (1856, 76). The 1856 is also a Love Token. 1911 Barber, 5x Mercs (1917,19,20,40,44), 5 x Rosies (1946,47,53,59,62). IF YOU CLICK ON THE PICS THEY GET SUPER BIG. I also found a TON of Wheaties that ranged from 1909 to 1950's.

Jewelry..: Mostly cheapie stuff, but the ring is sterling. Stamped "MARTINELLI STERLING". Wish it still had the stone. I'm guessing those are not real diamonds surrounding the ring. Interesting design in that you can adjust it to fit your finger. One size fits all....

Buttons...:

Kendall Motor Oil Token, Big FOB, Numbered Tag (33), Lead Seal, Very small buckles (?).....

Great job and nice finds..... Love the silver..... The Bullet looks like to me it could be a .45 or .50 cal muzzle loading slug. Thanks for the post looks like I need to spend more time at church....

You have had a very productive three weeks! The silver "button" looks like a colonial cufflink to me. What's the back look like?

Look at the buttons pic. It's the small silver button above the big flower button. 3rd row down, 3rd button in.
