Last 3 Weeks...

[cambria09]

Hello All. Kind of let things pile up again. See pics for last (8) hunts...most were old home sites with a park and RR station.

Managed 20+ Wheaties, (2) silver dimes, (ugly) silver ring, silver Hickok buckle, old Porsche tag, IHP, and a lead Prince Albert along with various other items of interest.

Thanks for the view and Good Luck out there. C9

I like it all, especially the souvenir medal from parents & teachers Congress. It is in great shape, curious what the white background in the medal is. Enamel?

 

[Squirrel322]

Great stuff!

Whats the big, round, red thing with an anchor on it?

The tube-thing on the far right of second photo is an old car or truck tire valve cover.

Hello highnam. I don't think the souvenir medal is very old...maybe 20 or 30-YRs in age. The white background is more like light blue and looks to be enamel.

Thanks for the reply and comments...Good Luck out there. C9

Pretty rare tunning badge, you can still find the ones in english for around a hundred bucks, but I have only seen a couple of these and in about the same shape, and the folks who owned those paid 600 Euro and more.

I would frame it, and put it up for sale.

The old shop still stands to this day as far as I know because I MDed it a few times about 10 years ago.

I have seen a few souvenir medals from early 1900’s and most of them have the same design (medal hanging from a bar) I thought it was from 1897, why do you think it is more modern?
