Beautiful Silver Thimble

[Bubba65]

Hi All,

I just dug today, the best silver thimble I have ever dug in my 38 years of detecting. I have dug my fair share in those years, but this one tops them all.
An added bonus is not freezing my butt off while to detecting in December in New York.
Thanks for looking!!!

Happy Hunting,

Jim

That is a nice thimble; not even dented.

Nicest one I have ever seen. In new conditions and beautifully decorated. Can you read the script on it? Perhaps they're initials?

That is a terrific thimble. I have only found one silver thimble, but it was flattened. Yours is a beauty. Congrats!

Most of the ones I've found are crushed or half rotted.

Thank you, I have found whole thimbles, most though have damage. But to be a Silver one and not damaged makes it the best for me.
