New Boy Born. Old Items Found. Need some I.D Help Too.

[JerV3]

Hey everyone,

How have you all been as of lately. I have been pretty inactive on the forums over the past month or so. My wife just gave birth to our 3rd son last Tuesday.

He was a healthy 8 lbs boy. So I have had my hands full as of lately. Don't think that I quit hunting and posting though. Just been really busy and there is no need for trying to impress you all.

I had so many good pics I just couldn't size and choose them all. Wish I would have gotten it up alot sooner. I am really getting lazy. I think it's just because I don't have the extra time right now to do so.

But I really wanted to maybe get a i.d on 2 of the items. One is a old button with a K in the center with a reef around it. It's back marked extra quality.

Have you guys ever seen this button. Would love to know more about it. Also I found a really large metal ball in a old farm field. It was about 10 inches down.

Was this a shot from a old gun. Or is it just a large old bearing of some sort. Tried to put a marble up next to it for size comparisons.

Can't even begin to explain all the places I have been. But things haven't been to bad.

Got a really ugly I mean ugly Franklin half on easter. Looks to have been in a fire at one time. It's all melted looking. That's me holding it near a old stone wall. I am actually happy not mad like the pic depicts.

I was mad because I didn't get nothing the whole day right. I was about to leave and dug the half down about 10 to 12 inches. Wife had the ham on the table and I was out hunting still. A half will do that to ya.

I'm gonna give a break down of the coins. Sorry the pics are so crappy. I took them pretty quickly.

I got 25 wheats. 1 1916 D for a better date.
I got 2 indians 1 1892 the other a 1900.
I got 2 v nickles 1 a 1892 the other a 1911.

I got one transit token dated 1922 and a 1958 play dime.
1 nice 1893 o barber quarter found on sunday.
1 nasty 1917 merc.
3 unknown tokens.

1 super ugly 52 franklin
4 older jeffersons

And a nice non aluminum 1902 classic car token.

Hope you all like the finds. Sorry about the pics and boring write up. Hope you guys can shed some light on the items I mentioned.

Congrats!! on the addition to your Family!! I can't help you with all of your finds but the round silver ball looks like a ball out of a large ball bearing from some type of a tractor. If you take a magnet and it sticks then I would say that is what it is! I don't know about the rest but I would be proud to have have all the current wealth you have!

Well...I don't know anything about the button, but I sure know a beautiful baby when I see one! Well done Jer and Mom! He's a keeper for sure!

Congrats on all those great finds! Might want to put that button in the 'what's it' forum and maybe some one can ID it for ya.

Congrats again on that beautiful baby boy.

Thanks alot everyone.

I appreciate all your guys thoughts on the finds. I'm leaning towards some type of bearing also. I guess I'll never know for sure.

I agree the Ben is a little to younge. But it makes sence though. People seemed to be more worried about there homes being blesssed back then.

I'll put the button in the what's it forum. Maybe someone with a good button book can place a i.d on it.
