Geo. III Meet Geo. VI...and a familiar whatsit!

Coppers found within 10 feet in a cow pasture...the joys of hunting a generational site!

I've seen the whatsit posted on this site and elsewhere but never with the rest of the cap. Looks like it's the top of a spice shaker. It's got a patent date of 21 Aug 1912. Mystery solved!

Nice finds! I don't remember that whatsit but I tracked it down thanks to that patent date Richard Hudnut Talcum Powder.

Thank you! I saw one posted a few years back and had a guy swear up and down that it was from a hot water bottle or some nonsense like that. I didn't think it was from such a thing but relented to the fact because he put up such a stink about it but I wasn't fully convinced so I let it go.
Now I know for sure.

Like the finds Romeo ,hope you didn't get too soaked out there today

Here's a pic of the brooch...I thought that the green was patina but it's actually enamel.

Now that I've removed that defective pinpointer I can go back to all the fields I've hunted over the past couple years and re-hunt them and almost be sure of finding missed targets.

Wow, I'm sick with envy, nice work, I'm sure you put in your time and have some good research skill. Congrats, they are awesome finds.

How exactly did you find it by the patent date? That would be cool to have for the future. Cool finds happy hunting!
