I was able to swing for two hours today in a field that has produced two Coronet LS's for me this year. About half of it has been mowed now :thumbsup:
No coins but I did have a great day. Three decent buttons, one tombac and one flat button that still has the string through the eye to hold it to the coat. The suspender clasp cleaned up nice, PAT. MARCH 7, 1871. The bell was a surprise and always produce a smile for me :headbang:
The last piece is some sort of lock face :icon_scratch: The "tear drop" with the star pivots awat to reveal a key hole. Pretty neat!

Nice finds. That suspender clasp really came out nice. I find quite a few similar ones but none that nice. Cool when they have dates on them like that.
 
Good 1800,s finds those buttons are in good shape :icon_thumleft: as is the buckle Good hunt Dd60
 
Cool digs VPR. I think I have seen your unknown relic on a chest before. :dontknow: Neat find non theless. :thumbsup:
 
I have a feeling that King George will be turning up soon. Keep digging that property. Patience, my friend!

Thank you for the replies !

I hope that the other half of the field gets mowed soon. There has got to be at least one more coin in the dirt somewhere. I crave more copper !!

The string looks like it may be wool. Maybe that is why it stood up so well in the ground. This field is very sandy and well drained too.
