Pic #2 - The coins: 1941 Merc, No date seated Half Dime, JH&Co Scrip token, 1865 2 cent piece, 1919 Buffalo nickel, 5 Wheaties and a 1870 IH penny.
Pic #3 - The buttons: Various flat buttons, one iron back button and a couple other random ones.
Pic #4 - The relics: Buckles, Brass, Rivets, Knapsack hook, .54cal two ring Sharps, various lead, Singer MFG Co silver plate, .50 cal round @ 15", and a few other whatsits.

Hope everyone is finding lots of goodies. Happy Holidays and Happy Hunting!!!

Hey Wes. How about a pic of that piece of Spanish silver you found on top of the ground in the middle of a several 100 acre field. That still amazes me....... the proverbial needle in a haystack. Yall kicked my butt :BangHead:

I read your description, and hope you realize you dug a piece of a CW era spur (bootstrap piece) in the last photo, top line, second from the right.

Great finds!

Thanks...I'm not good at ID'ing CW stuff, but I happened to have my buddy WES with me when I found it. He was able to give me the same description you did. Thanks BuckleElf. Happy Hunting!
