Old home site

[srss]

I have been searching this old homesite that was torn down in the 50s I dont know when it was built. This is some of what i have found. A 1919 wheatie, 1944 nickle, 1930s cracker jack coin with james garfield on it, some kind of small bottle [purfume maybe], part of old pocket watch, some kind of brass or copper thimble or something, a metal blue plate mayo lid and any info on the button would be helpful. Thanks Steve.

No markings on the charm and i dont know what its made of any idea on the symbol? My first thought was N.O. Saints.

That silver charm could be a corps badge-charm from the civil war era...can't remember what corps its from but one had that as its symbol...look up 'corps badges' and maybe you will turn up something...great finds, wear that place out!
