I gave it back!

As always, I give back items known to have belonged to the landowner. I was detecting the new spot today in PA, it was 50 degrees, so couldn't resist. I dug a couple more tombac buttons, a spoon handle, a few modern coins, a broken piece to a colonial "paste" knee buckle in brass with "stones", and this charm.

It belonged to the owner who had buried it in memory of her little grandson. The thing had washed out and was lying on top of the ground. I saw it before the machine did. She was very happy to get it back and promptly reburied it!

The hunt was good, but returning the charm is special!

That’s awesome, I often do the same. I feel the karma will come back to me….eventually.

I looked it up, apparently she lived in the 7th century and was murdered by her father and is the patrol saint for mental afflictions and nervous disorders.
