got out 3 times over the weekend,nothing too spectacular to brag about,no colonial coppers or large cents but,it was a gorgeous weekend and just great to be out!
2 keg taps,a 1916 merc,a sportsman's button a few flatties,a purpleish strapside whiskey flask bottle,a marksman's pinback( military? WWI? :dontknow: )thought i had a half dime turns out to be 1930's play money & a neat sash buckle and the usual cellar hole trash.

It was sure nice weather here too.

The second site pic is awesome, represents a pile of work. Got to respect them old timers. I do anyway.

Respectable finds, and a good post.
 
Hey, that last buckle pictured separately is really cool.
 
Some nice finds. Thanks for sharing. Like those old buckles, especially after you spent so much time cleaning them to make them look like NEW!

thanks! and I have the utmost respect for these folks.hard workers and took pride in what they do
 
H M N, Lot of COOL finds Brother,I really like that big buckle!!!! Last pic,between bottle and spoon,is that an ox ball??????????? God Bless HH Chris
 
Really cool button, does the dime have a "D" on the back? HH
 
More amazing Finds, Congrats! I recently found a similar Marksman pin(silver looking, no markings) but different back, 2 little pins sticking out for the push on type mounts. No idea of age but I've seen one on the web(brass in original box, back not shown) dated 1913 (google Marksman pin / Images), I would think they were probably used for sometime and yours older than that and mine much newer.
