Another indian and an old cameo

[crazyjarhead]

Good evening everyone, Went back to the JA McDonald home today and pulled out another Indian, the 4th this week. It's a 1882 and in superb shape, as the liberty is clear around the head. This brings my total to eight this year. I also found a cameo with the face of a lady, I believe. No markings but made of glass or porcelain. Must have looked fine on a 1800's era gal. Look hard and you will see the face. When it was dirty and I wipped it with my finger you could see the face much easier than after I washed it. Found another metal button, no markings . Found a 1 cent chewing gum lid.Can't read the top part. Found a 1974 S clad penny and a UMC shotgun shell bottom. I have found several of these and they date to the early 1900's I believe. The ring is from a bridle or some kind of livestock harness. Have found quite a few of these as horses and buggy were the name of the game here as the house dates from 1836. Enjoy and any help on the button would be appreciated. Ron

Button ID help?


I see a little aluminum "two-hole" button in your post. That one is 20th c.

I see the cameo, but I don't think that was a button. It is a WAY COOL find, though!

And I see the thing that says "UMC"--and that is a Shotgun Shell Casing.


Best Wishes,

A cameo it is. Wasn't sure. I figured the metal button wasn't too old. I know the umc shell is pretty old as I have found 4or5 at thisplace.

I don't know why I haven't found any silver lately (just a Merc up by the gravel drive way) This place seems to be lacking silver for some reason..... not to say there is none there but they are elusive

Thanks DF. I should be since it is darn near 200 years old. We just need some soaking rains. We had some last week but it's dry again. Going to be near 85 Mon and tues. Summer is back
