Actually found this last night but didn't have time to post it..It was back up at our community center/pool area I've been huntin'.This old "clip on" was down at least 6",relic mode read a bullet(thank's Nana)Hadn't had time to do a full cleaning yet but will keep you posted,but at 6'' it sure did shine up pretty good from just some water...Gotta cut grass right now and gonna hit it again this evening...Thank's for looking...Oh yea,and quite possibly the oldest pull tab in the world ....HH!!

That's what my Granny called an earbob! Silver? Monty

 

[hollowpointred]

a lot of times those older pulltabs can mean a silver coin or two. i think they were using that style in the 60s.

No mark's as of yet...might be plated...

 

[tsgman]

Neat find Civil.

 

[Dman]

Nice ear ring

 

[Lafitte]

Neat finds!

Here's an interesting thought. We MDer's probably now control the pulltab trade. We could corner the market!
Oldest pulltab ever found. We could start a new collecting fad....Or maybe I should shut up.

so granny was sipping on a "cold one" and lost her earring---

 

[Monty]

I'd like for someone to post a display with all the different kinds of pull tabs we find. Maybe I'll start a blog on it next time I go out? Monty

 

[BioProfessor]

Oh no. Now we are going to have to identify all the pull tabs we find!!! No way. No how. If ya'll get me started on that stuff. I'll have to beat myself silly with my detector coil. Please don't start that. Please. We are all stretched to the max trying to keep up with real finds. Now we add pull tabs? What's next? Nail sizes? Uses for pieces of wire? Trying to get the rust off bottle caps to find out the brand and when it was sold

Help! This could be metal detecting hell.
