Hunted the yard at a old Farm House just before the last snow storm we had here.
The home owner told me that a friend of his spent a lot of time hunting the yard years ago.
So ... I didn't find any Silver Coins but I did manage to get a couple of keepers.

Indian Cent - 1884
Wheat Cents - (13) - from 1918 to 1957
Button - with Anchor
Silver Plated Brooch - Three Women on it - one is holding a "Disc" - ( looks like a all Girl Frisbee Team ? :laughing9: )
This is the first Brooch or Pin Back I've ever found that has a Brass Pin - there usually made of steel and rot away.
If anyone knows what this Brooch depicts / represents, please let me know.

Good Hunting !

Nice brooch and typically Art Nouveau. Those ladies are the ‘Three Graces’ or ‘Charites’ representing charm, beauty, and creativity. In Greek mythology they’re named Aglaea, Euphrosyne, and Thalia… the daughters of Zeus and Eurynome, The’yre dancing and the ‘disc’ being held aloft is a tambourine.

Thanks for the information on the Brooch Red-Coat !

Congratulations on your achievement
Thanks again for sharing
 
Congratulations! The pin is a great find. So are the penny and the button! Thanks for sharing. Red-Coat, thanks once more for sharing your knowledge!
 
Nice finds as usual, E-Trac! I do wish your photos were higher resolution: I want to be able to zoom in on all the cool stuff you find.
Your right - I need to get one of those Macro Stands for our cell phone to improve the photo quality.
