Metal Detecting
Well I went back to the creek it’s like a drainage canal/creek the people that live alongside the creek seem to always grow these bending bamboo to be in 61 and have another detector in a scoop it’s like walking through the jungle but I try. I’m not the one that finds a lot of fines but I try to keep it interesting and this is interesting it’s a beautiful button it’s off a fashion button and an underwear button and I got a bracelet so I call it a success, But respect to all you water hunters out there it wears me out.

P.S. I have just as much fun posting my fines after I clean them up and show you guys than finding it so thank you

That’s one awesome flat button! Congratulations
 

Your decorated button looks to be early-20thc, probably cast from pot metal. :icon_scratch:

But this bracelet you found is definitely the star of your detecting show Truth! :hello2:
I'm thinking it dates from the 1920's... maybe consider posting it in the What is it forum to get more info and a date on it.

Cool brass bracelet and button.
Haven't seen a button as that being posted up before.
The bracelet seems to ring a bell, just not grabbing the memory at the moment.

Thank you Dave
 

Not exactly what I would call a water hunt, unless it was once a swimming hole. That's just wet relic hunting. :laughing7:
Bracelet looks Asian maybe?

Good post. You seem like the type that thinks out of the box and trys places that noone else probably would. Thats where the undiscovered finds are. Off the beaten path. Good advice for everyone.

Well I had such a horrible time on beaches and with this I have to use the scoop it does get like a foot deep or pass that but yes I will settle wet relic hunting anytime lol

Diggit I do because 95% of my hunting is public property so I HAVE to think out the box
