Antique Bling and a bit of Silver

[ModernMiner]

I got permission to a 1920's farm house a few days ago. The owner said their nephew had detected it in the past I stopped by there today for a few hours. They were right, someone didn't leave me much. I dug about $1.00 in modern clad. The only keeps I dug were a 1944 P silver war nickel and a piece of antique bling.

Any ideas on the age or what this jewelry piece is

I was able to get a picture of the Tenn Trio passing through my area too.

Thanks for looking,
MM

Good to see your still hunting Doug. I haven't been out since last fall, seems like I can never find the time. I sure miss the old days, hunting everyday almost, priorities change I guess. I'll try and get out soon for ya!
I count 4 birds in that group by the way.

Great to hear from you Big Guy. I took some time off too when we moved to the mountains. I miss my old spots. Trying to get in the groove again over here.
I love the old houses, as they turn up such a variety of relics.

As far as the turkey count, you are correct. Quindy has become such a detecting icon he hired another turkey to carry his equipment and dig his plugs for him.
Hope to see you posting again soon,
Doug

You did OK MM. We had to leave Tennessee because it's Turkey Season here-LOL. HH, Q.

LMAO! The Trio is welcome in NC any time Q.
That Dman is one pretty bird. I noticed his feathers were finely groomed.

Cool necklace...

 

[ModernMiner]

That's a really nice old piece, marking act was 1906... So I'm sure it predates that !!

Keep @ it and HH !!

MUD,
Thanks for that info. I learn something new here on Tnet every day.

A great piece of jewelry from a fascinating era in time.

 

[ModernMiner]

I do believe you're right, MM. It's not that far from Tennessee...and I can see one of them has an orange hat on, so that confirms it.
Super find on the necklace! That's pretty jazzy~

Thanks Nana. As they passed through I heard Quindy bird tell Dman bird that he was going to knock the giblets out of him if he doesn't stop talking.

Jewelry is always a great find but Art Deco is just the icing on the cake. Great find.

Thanks Ray. This piece may have belonged to one of those vintage Vegas gals.

I do believe that middle one is DMan, MM. You can tell by the way his beard has been heavily waxed and sticks out! I believe Breezie should include pics in her ID's more often. I am liking it! Living in Amish country, I don't get to see legs very often, lol.
Very nice jewelry find and it looks like Breezie nailed it. I bet that made you catch your breath when you first saw it. A War nickel is still on my wanted list. Good luck on your next trip.

LMAO!!! I bet you find a lot of WHEAT pennies up there in Amish country though. I wonder if their legs are hairy?
I think Dman is more like a peacock then a wild turkey. He's one handsome bird.
Thanks for looking OD.

Really nice find. I like the filigree necklace. I may need a better picture of it to put in our new book, (Identifying Civilian Relics). We plan to put Quindy on the cover.

I about spit my coffee out on that one. LOL
I'll get you some better photos so this can be put in your book Dman. Do you need any ChuckE Cheese token shots?
I can't wait for my signed copy. See if you can borrow Quindy's quill pen for the signing.
Thanks for l@@king,

Thanks everyone. I dug the antique piece next to a large tree stump on the side of the house. Found a few mason jar lids too. There were 8 acres behind the house but the grass was over a foot high.
I didn't even know I had dug the war nickel until I got it home and cleaned it up.

Boots to wear in that tall grass.

Lol. That is my kind of find right there Chris. Those civil war sardine belt buckles are rare finds. Yours even has the turn key attached still. Awesome find. I vote BANNER!!!
