Big 4 and a Casualty

[Lee43]

Larry and I went back to the house site yesterday where I found the Barber Quarter and he got the Indians the day before. We found lots and lots of brass items and misc. junk. I did find a wheat penny "WOW" I also managed a couple of nice items. The button is from the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railway, known as the Big 4. Their dates of operation was from 1889 to 1922. The other find was a casualty, he was a Manoil soldier using a trench periscope, but it looks like he caught one. We did not find much but we did have fun. Thanks for looking..........Lee

I really like the WWI soldier. . . my grandfather gave me some like that when I was a kid, I have no clue what I did with them.

For some reason, the first twenty minutes of "Saving Private Ryan" spring to mind.
