Detector(s) used
Whites MXT & Fisher 1280x Aquanaut
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving, I ended up detecting for about an hour or so at my brother in-laws house, the age slips my memory right now but am guessing in the 1880 to 1900 era for the build, well i did end up finding some "interesting stuff" and what turned out to be my oldest coin to date, and sadly the worst condition silver coin also! it is an 1858 Canadian dime and it looks to me that it was run hard and put away wet til it was lost, and then the backyard did it no favors!

It's really in rough shape, you can barely make out the details in person, in the pics it's even worse, and how odd finding that old a Canadian dime,but hey it's my oldest by 7 years so i like it! Also found part of what i think is a small locket, although i keep also thinking about wrist watches having covers sometimes, the only other thing of interest is an economy size metal tube of Dentu-Creme that's kinda cool, other then that had a wonderful Thanksgiving, it was sad that my father in-law was to ill to attend but we found out we are soon to have twin nieces or nephews sometime in May and the food and company were great! thanks for reading this and if any one has any ideas on the age of the locket/cover or the age of the tube, or if there is anything i can do to clean that dime up please let me know.
