First silver, buffalo and other cool stuff

[Ennismill]

Finally found my first silver. Undated, heavily worm standing liberty quarter. Then next hole 1919 wheatie. A little while later a buffalo nickel, heavily corroded. A cool button and a unidentified white piece. Any input on what it is would be awesome.

Very nice way to get your first silver ! Are there 3 stars under the eagle (type two) ?

The white thing is called a Hem Weight. They were usually made of lead and used to keep the hems on a ladies dress straight. I understand that they were also sewed into the hems of drapery.
Congrats on your first silver. People have gone for years of metal detecting without finding a Standing Liberty Quarter

Nice job. 😁 Not 100% certain, but I believe the white object is a lead curtain/drapery weight.

Congratulations on the first silver! To have it be a Standing Liberty is a super cool bonus!
