First dig of the year produces pocket watch etc! :D

Finally!!!! The snow and cold have let go of my part of Sweden!
Me and the Swed Hunter went back to the kindergarten we visited last year! I found some nice stuff on the first dig of the year...
The remains of a pocket watch, not in the best condition but with a nice pattern on the back! Age unknown. I also found some sort of clasp marked with "US patent" on the back, a "President" badge, 5 öre from 1975, an older button and 3 cartridge cases...

I´m also including a pic of the area in wich we were digging!

Enjoy!

The "PRESIDENT" "Badge" is part of a Shirley President suspender clip manufactured in Shirley, Massachusetts. Probably after 1900.
