Blue button - Amethyst bracelet top - odds and ends

Knightwalker · Mar 3, 2010

Went to old homesite. Found a plastic blue button on top of the ground. I found what looks like the top piece to of a bracelet, it has fancy deco on sides and an Amethyst gem in the center. Odd and end things are piece with slit, I think it's off silverware or knife. A piece of button back or cover, no writing on it. Melted lead and a round lead shot. Two shotgun caps, big tall one has UMC Co. No. 10, the other has Remington UMC No. 12 NEW CLUB, and small cal. shell with a U on the end. 2 cultivator pieces. Metal ring, odd piece of metal with two rivits, piece of glass with leaf on it. and Piec with two holes and slots ( maybe hormonica reef). And usual nails and bits of junk metal. Thanks for looking.

The iron piece with the rivets is to a tin pot or bucket. The rivets went into the side of the bucket or pot and the end of the handle went through the hole of the piece you dug. The brass piece is part of a harmonica plate the held the reeds.

Hi KW,

Neat piece of older jewellery :icon_thumright:

Keep pulling out everything from that site and watch out for treasure. Once I left a 'plastic' bracelet behind. Now I know that some bakelite bracelets have the same value or more with gold ones.

Thank you vayank54. I never even thought of bucket or pot. Who knows. Might of came off an old potty pot. I kind of figured the brass thing was from a homonica. I seen others posted here.

Thank you tautara. It's getting down to start digging everything. Not many good signals. Just faint good ones that are there then not. What blowing my mind is, I"m getting signals in discriminating mode, then check in all metal and nothing. I figure it a deep find. Did a shovel full out check the clod and it is there. All metal mode might pick it up then. Usually turns out to be darn nails. Grrrr.

KW, the plow point is from a plow used to "layoff' rows for planting after the land is turned by a turning plow. We call that plow a "Rastus" In Tennessee. The iron piece to the right of that one is a mower section. Mower sections sound better than they should because of the triangle shape. Hunt that spot hard!! Good luck, Quindy.

Thank you Quindy. I should of remembered the mower blade. It has been a while since I been around one. It use too be a Hay field. I plan on hunting hard, weather suppose to be nice the next few days.
