Found my first standing liberty!

[dieharddigger]

Hit the old farmhouse today. Found a few keepers including a 1918 or 1928 Standing liberty. Can't seem to make out the third digit. Also found the tag with the name on it,if any one knows what it was used for let me know. To small for a buckle First complete toy gun too.

nice finds! I would say it is a 1918. Its in pretty good shape, if it was a 28 in that good of shape the date would be strong. on the early SLQ's the dates were the highest point and some wore off while still in circulation. The design was changed on the later ones. Awesome digs!!!

Nice finds, were`d you get that extra large pouch to carry all that around with you?

Great hunt!
Your 1879 is a semi key date and looks to be in
pretty good shape. if the Barber is an "S" mint,
it is a key date. Let us know.

It was getting heavy,especially when I threw in the piece of chain!

The Indian is decent and the Barber is an "o" mint,close though!

That is a really nice 1918 quarter.

I might have found some information on your George Teall:

http://files.usgwarchives.org/wi/racine/cemetery/mcsec10a.txt

This is the listing contained in the link, and it lists these birth and death dates for a George Teall of Racine, Wisconsin:

TEALL, J. George 15 June 1845 3 Jan. 1933 Co. A. 22nd Reg't. Wis. Inf.

Thanks,Plehbah
I did see a couple listing's for, "Geo.Teall" . Wonder what that thing was though?

Nice finds!!
I wonder if that could have been a slide tightener from a piece of tack from a horse? I have never seen one with a name like that, but it could have been? I've seen something similar, one end would have been permanantly sewn on, the other end just slipped thru the open end and then slipped thru the sewn on end to tighten a leather strap... ??
Just a thought, I would think it might be because of the size of the buckle opening.

Lots of nice finds there!
Finding a SLQ with any legible date on it's a big deal to me.
