went to a field today that still has not been planted, all the rain here is keeping the farmers out of the fields. Found a couple wheats 1958, and 1928. I almost hate finding wheats in a field, I am hoping they will be all indians. But not today......

I did get this button type item, not real sure what it is, has an eagle on it. Any clues anyone?

Nice finds!
Hope that field stays dry for you for a few days. This rain's getting old. How do you like that X-terra?

Mike I LOVE my x-70 !
 
Goes 4 ever, Nice day out- I'm thrilled if I even find a wheatie these days. The larger brass thingy is a doorbell cover,

circa 1880's -1900 - I think - We lived in a late Victorian house in Helena , Montana when I was a youngster , and we

had a doorbell almost exactly like that one . Argentium.
 
Great Finds Terry, I really liked the video you made also. Not sure what the button is, but I like it.

went back to the same site today was only there 45 minutes and we got rained out!
 
Your little button type whatsit could be a suspender clip. Nice hunt and cool finds, I need to get out and do some of these fields around here that got flooded after planting this spring. I just have a hard time swinging my detector when the mud is knee deep (not exaggerating either).
