Hey everyone,

These are my finds from Sunday and today...Sunday I pulled a Draped Bust LC (toasted) with a piercing (little slit,not hole) through the middle and what appears to be the letter G etched into it. Also pulled the buckles,mini crotal bell(still rings) and the draw pull looking things as well as the usual bits like a couple buttons and musket balls(not shown).
Today I went back to the Barber Half site and it's still producing quite well. I managed to score a 1934 Merc,1915 Barber Dime,1898 Barber Quarter, and my second ever Standing Liberty Quarter!(1918 D) Also scored a broken but nice brooch with a woman's bust on it as well as a St. Rita religious medal and a 1905 IHP and a 1920 Wheatie (still cleaning) for good measure. Thanks for looking and HH!

UPDATE~ I don't like that SLQ pic so here's one more...
