Ok now that I have your attention :laughing7:

These finds are from Saturday 11/10. I believe the house that was here was abondoned during the depression. I had found a small coin shaped object here last year which was identified as part of a belly dancer costume. nearby I was surprised to find the rest of it. I think the animal on it is a camel.

Too bad it is badly plow damaged.

It seems the woman of the house really liked bling. found a couple of nice buckles including a big silver one.

This one is a colonial buckle and I can prove it :laughing7:

Now the large cent I think is a bit of an anomoly. 1836 I believe.

and lastly a find that really got my blood boiling. A coin purse clasp! However I searched everywhere closeby and could find no coins. I am going to have a sit and study the plow lines in the field to scope possible locations it could have been dragged to or where the clasp might have come from. It being tangled as badly as it is I imagine it could have gone for many plow rides over the years :)
