Two Silvers, Old and New

[deershed]

Hit a couple sites today and went home happy. First stop I wanted to hit a field but, hay wasn't cut. Instead I hit what I believe was an old corral at the same site. First hit walking thur the gate was a 86-87, 1965 Washington.
Dug some trash then got a sketchy low 80's hit, Spanish silver.
Second site was an early 1900's yard but, was hit already. Found some wheats, cool relics and a 51 Rosie.
I'll take a day like today any day.

Oh that was really a well balanced hunt. Nice Silver with big differences in age. I like the toy plane and soldier, as well as the key and the butterfly buckle.
Congratulations

Spanish silver and a lead toy soldier. That's an odd couple.

That is a really sweet set of finds, spanning a couple of hundred years too.

Very well done DS!

We did have similar hunts, only your old is about a hundred years older than my old. Congrats on the Spanish!

Beautiful work DS! Nice Spanish

That key is to a RR lock, any identifying RR initials on it anywhere? I have one that has GTW or Grand Trunk Western on it.

Nice silvers and lots of interesting pieces. Great place to dig!!

Now your just getting technical. Lol I'd take a 1800's silver any day.

No initials on the key, only a number 22 at top of key. I was wondering what it might go to. It makes sense it would be a railroad key, tracks run straight across road from where it was found.
When I showed the homeowner I said I was curious what it might go to. He said he had a pile of them laying around the house.
Maybe it goes to that other piece I found. Lol Our 300 New Home". We think its the front of an old brass lock.

Thanks Sir!!
It's been a crazy year for lead soldiers and a couple other lead toys. No complaints here though, I'll take them all.
I thought the Rosie and the Spanish were the odd couple. Hard to believe you can find two different silver coins with so many years between the two of them.
