Hi Fog; You should think about joining a Club like the MA Treasure Hnting Association ok. The link is masstreasure.com ok. Turn your eyes to farm fields. They are gold mines especially after they have been plowed in September - October ok. They are usually overgrown with grass during the summer months ok. PEACE:RONB

Great save,love the pewter button you should put something on it to stop it from flaking away

50/50 coat of Elmer's glue and water will do the trick- don't let it dry out or it may disintegrate.
