Thanks for the reply,,

your spoon is coin silver, if the name is N. Harding & Co. , it came from Haverhill MA 1851 - 1862

Awesome Finds!
Sweet Silver spoon from up this way, I dug 3 plated spoons (all different designs)
from a 3 foot circle a few days back, spoon spills happen
Do I see a colonial buckle, or is that a barrette
great post and photos!

thanks for the pic, doesn't look like barrette back, anyone else ?
Kids playing with spoons is a great thought, so many mysteries...
Hope your 'new pence' is a 1983, I found this: " A small number of 1983 "New Pence" coins exist. These coins are rather rare, and are considered collectors' items."
Best digs to you!

I always got my eyes open for rarities, in feb/march 1982 US cents began being made from zinc, but there are some 1983 coppers out there, mint error, $$$
I cull all the copper cents from my change, they are worth over 2C scrap.
I check my 83s , just hold a post 82 in the other hand, you can feel the difference in weight. HH
