Hunted a 150 Year Old Homestead

seger98 · Mar 13, 2009

And here is what I found.

Found a collar button from around WWI, a shell game token, and a little sterling silver ring that has two arrows pointing at a letter U on the inside like this -->U<-- :icon_scratch:

Two picture plates, one has 3 people on it the other 2.

I found a lot of canning lids & a couple of ceramic & glass lids that go with them.

Part of a spoon & some clad. Was disappointed that we didn't find any silver coins, not even a wheatie! The wife found 2 cents!

Those finds are definately old enough. I believe I would go over that site slow. I bet some coins will turn up. By the way I love the buttons and lithographs.

Hey Ron, leaving Alabama on the 26th of this month for WI. Got a couple of stops to make before we get there so the snow will all be gone by the time we hit the boarder.

Keep at it, Seger, and you will find what you're looking for. You'll also find a lot of stuff you didn't expect to find.

As long as you're out there detecting, that's what matters the most!
