ALA & assorted finds (Updated w/pics)

Detected a 250 yr old site today for first time. Seems like a virgin site, so hoping for silver at some point. Today gave me a nice bread token, 1924 dog lic., two mexican coins , a almost heart stopper ring - Avon fake, clay marble, and ALA (anybody know what that's from?)

Oops, hold on, I'm having a sizing problem with pics.

Anyone use Shotwell Photo Manager? It seems pics can't be resized.

I broke down and used photobucket.

Sorry, this is the last pic I will post. Can't resize with the POC program I have.

Thanks Diggumup, but I had a bunch more.
I have a photobucket account, but I find it's a PIA to load pics, then load to Photobucket, then post on forum. Then if I remove from PhotoB, they disappear from here too. I used to use Kodak Easy Share and it worked great. But I changed from Windows to Ubuntu, and KES is not compatible. I'll keep trying, I can't believe a photo manager doesn't allow resizing somehow.

BTW, the ALA is on a large oval belt buckle size emblem, maybe from a truck or something. Like a FORD emblem but just the three letters (polished silver color w/blue letters and trim).

I found one. It looks like a badge that attches to your car similar to older AAA badges. It stands for Automobile Legal Association, it was established in 1907 your item probably dates between 1930-50, I would think.

Dang Diggum, you're good. That's it. A little dirtier and the blue is chipping in spots. I'll post the rest if I ever get this picture sizing to work.
