Got out first thing this morning, to the corn field where I was finding the zincons. Found a few more and a clad quarter. Decided to scout the field. Went to a slight high spot and found some pottery shards. Found the 4 buttons LC, draped bust I believe. Then I hit the silver thimble, a first for me, plenty of brass ones, but this was on my list. Plenty of targets, so I think I'm where I want to be for a little while. Good luck to all. Art Almost forgot about the bottle top no threads and the metal and glass are heavy?

Congrats art, looks like another great day digging. I think scrappy steve found a silver thimble too. Wow!! What a coincidence.
 
That sure looks like good trash, congrats on the thimble! It's funny how something like that can make your day:)
 
Very cool finds Art, one of my favorite finds was a tailors silver thimble I found a few years back.
 
Congratulations on getting your first silver thimble, not a common find.
Are you going to be leaving it as is, or straightening the thimble back to its original condition?
