Garrett AT Pro, Equinox 800 (as of 10/2019)
Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
Hit a homestead that is now woods. Found my first General Service buttons ever on two consecutive hunts. The backmark for the better one is D. Evans, Attleboro Falls, so it is at least World War I era. Found several coins, with the best being a really nice 1905 IH penny. The watch has a patented date of "Dec 23. 90. Jan 13." No markings on the rosette, though the interesting handle object is stamped "Boston Burner"; no idea. Thanks for looking. HH and stay safe.

Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 

Congrats on the nice relics! :occasion14:
 

Great military finds. Start a display case of those buttons, because I think there will be many more in your detecting future.
 

Good going on the Military buttons those are really cool. I like the pocket watch I have about 6 or 7 and they are stuck shut but not silver or gold so I havent messed with them Glad you had a productive couple of days keep rippin my friend. Tommy
 

Buttons I think are WW I - Ive found a bunch at a WW I training camp - The round object with the bent bar should be a horse bridle rosette
I have one similar
