Went back to the farm i found the 1852 large cent. I found this close to the same spot i found the other coins so I'm thinking it's pretty old . Anyway to figure out how old this is? I was pretty happy when i found the pin 1st time I ever found anything with Diamonds in it.

Thanks

Duff

:thumbsup: on the Victorian Bar Pin. Be sure to post some pics of it cleaned. Is it marked anywhere? Breezie

Breezie Here are some pictures after i cleaned the pin. :'( :'( :'( The Diamonds are lose and two came out.
Good thing I found them :laughing7: I can't read the markings on the back of the pin. Nothing on the back of the token but i still think it's pretty cool.

Here are some other things i found?

Thank you for looking

Duff

You have some really neat finds! I would suggest taking the Victorian bar pin to a jeweler (take the loose stones too), and get him/her to verify if they are diamonds or rhinestones. They can also test it to see if it's gold/silver/plated or whatever. If it's the real deal, you may want to consider having it professionally cleaned. I look forward to hearing the update. Breezie
