Silver thimble, wheatie, & a hat!

[TRanegar36]

Managed to get in 2 hours of hunting before the rains hit. I've been MIA for about a week now nursing a bruised knee so it felt good to get out. I went back to the homesite where I found the gold ring last week... targets are few and far between, but I still get something good every time I go there.

My best finds of the day were a 1930 Wheatie, silver thimble (I think at least), a little hat, and a weight of some sort . I had the weight in my junk pile but noticed some letters on it... let me know what you guys think.

Also, a gold plated heart (ANNA on it). A handle off a bike? Pieces of some toy cars & the figurine... was hoping it was a marble when I saw the blue circle shape in the hole.

Thanks for reading & happy hunting!

The little hat is most likely the Monopoly game piece. I have found two top hats so far!

Congrats on the silver thimble... all of mine have been aluminum.

Best of luck to you sir!

Thanks Tom! Hopefully it's not aluminum... haven't pried it open yet to see if there's a stamp, but it came out of the ground looking like silver.
Best of luck to you too!
