Wow, my skin looks a bit rough. Will be sure to put some cream on tonight. Got out today for the first time this year. What an absolutely beautiful day! Been busy lately with a new job and moving, but some detecting had to happen today! Found a spot using Google Earth as I'm not too familiar with the area yet. Started a bit slow, and the first good find was the piece marked "Sterling." Any idea what it is? I'm thinking some keychain part? Age? It looks a bit older. Then got a 1947-D Roosie. It was in the same hole as a nail, so that was probably why others have missed it. Also got a wartime nickel, and two buffalo nickels. There's a wheat cent somewhere. Feels good to get out again!

Stylistically , I'll guess 1920's not sure whether it's a part to a fob or a key chain . Does the bit at the end of the chain swivel ?
 

Nice finds- Very nice first hunt!

Continued success to you!!

The piece at the end doesn't swivel, but I'm thinking it connected to another piece, and once connected, it might have spun.
