Started with a Minelab xterra 505. Then Equinox 600 with stock coil, xl coil and sinper coil depending on circumstances. Now use a manticore mostly or oversized coil on equinox.

Metal Detecting
Some finds from a few places. Token and bow pin came out near the fancy sash buckles.

Anyone ever hear of "Premier" branded snap buttons? I found a spill of 6 of them. Patent date one back is April 12th 1904 . Based on patent they may have been made by Scovill mfg Co. These appear to have been used on leather because I found the one of them in leather with its back part of snap still attached. Some backs were found loose.

Wheaty is a 1911.
Buckle may not be old?? It's gold colored and was a few inches not deep with its leather still in it though in bad shape. Cleaned up really nice.

Very tiny piece by wheaty I think is silver though it was a mid tone. No idea what it's from. Open to suggestions.

Thank you. 0 idea what that tiny silver thing is in my glove. Was a pain to pin point.
