Silver, Copper, & Relics at an 1840s abandoned farm house

So a friend of my Dad says I can do some digging at an old house he ownes, He said he poked around there some but didnt have much luck. Today I figured on taking a ride to find this place. I pull up and the place is totaly overgrown. But I drove all the way out there and didnt want to leave empty handed. My best score are these gold diamond studded cuff links with black onyx inlay, these really have some nice weight to them, the only marking is a name thats hard to read, i think it says sarah cow, first thing i did when i got home was check it with a magnet, as deep as they were and no sign of being plated found a large cent with a big hole in it, a 1918 merc and a 1906 indian head, 12 wheat cents, and some other very nice relics the horses head and old letter openner are quite nice also, found some toys also, some legos and a little rubber dragon, lol. I spent about 2 hours there, Im going to find out if he`ll let me go to town with a weed whacker in the back, big big back yard that i didnt even touch, all this stuff was in the front jungle, hope you all enjoy the pics as much as i enjoyed my hunt,
Pro-

OK! had to change the title, a closer inspection tells me thier plate.

The Sarahcow could be Sarahcov for Sarah Coventry. I remember my Mother having a jewelry box full of the stuff. It was sold at parties like Avon or Tupperware.

Nice finds that letter opener is the best looks old ,that house is like 100,s here just left to rot the people just packed up and moved because the town raised property taxes so high the old timers packed it in and the town dont care what the property looks like .Good digs Dd60

Nice finds for the first effort, I couldnt see any chimneys in the photos but have you had a little tinker looking around inside?

The owner wasnt with me when i went, so i didnt venture in, a place like this one wrong step and you could go thru the floor. i just stuck to the yard, ill get back there soon.....i hope

Nice finds.....and good pics.
Always good to see the area that finds are found in, sort of transports us there with you on the dig!
The old house....with the good front and slab timber on the sides, and so big.
There has got to be a lot of stuff just waiting for you.
Keep us posted.
HH and keep at it
