Honeymoon Finds

[BuckleBoy]

Hello All,

Not much time to write, but here are some honeymoon finds from KY and LA. BIG thanks to Hill Billy for taking us to a great site. Many buttons were dug, and DiggerGirl got a nice shoe buckle piece. I got a CW Eagle "I" button with the shank. Has a push in the face, but it was so great to see that old Kentucky dirt again, and clean that soil off my finds. I was also very pleased to dig a ramrod channel. Been since I lived in KY that I dug one of those. Here are some photos:







In our LA digging, we managed to recover FOUR tokens! Normally we dig, combined between Shanegalang, DG, and I, ONE plantation token every couple months here. One of the tokens (the T.D. Lalande one I recovered), I believe to be unlisted! She got a pre-1930 tag from a Chevrolet ("Body by FISHER"). I found one online for sale for $40. I got a spur neck and she dug a couple tax tokens, a wildlife and fisheries 1952 Hoop Net tag, barrel tap pieces, and a brass wedding band. Here are the LA finds:





And here are photos of the four tokens. She got a Thos. C. Toups 25c token from ARIEL, LA (ghost town).



She also dug an S. P. Achee, Baker (Houma, LA) good for one loaf of bread:



I got one (unlisted?) T. D. Lalande 25c token from Raceland, LA:



And a beautiful Large Cent-sized Lafreniere Plantation token (75cents) from "Camp Parapet," LA (CSA).



Here's her FISHER car body tag. These square tags are early. The one from online is on the right.

Hello Buckleboy, nice finds, but you should be doing something else on your honeymoon

She actually proposed to me by burying a brass wedding band with a note tied to it and and waiting for me to swing over it in the crop stubble! Yes, her wedding band is much nicer.

Hello Buckleboy, nice finds, but you should be doing something else on your honeymoon

There's plenty of that too.

Pretty much a perfect honeymoon.

Congrats on a fun filled, digging Honeymoon! I would like to find me another woman that would do most anything with me instead of argue. I hope you went to Jared's for the Wedding Band instead of the beach or park!

A honeymoon that includes Metal Detecting? Now that's a jackpot in itself.

The rings were both new, not dug. But if I'd given her a dug one, she would've valued that just as highly, or more highly as a new one. There just wasnt any in my dug rings that she liked.

Some cool finds there BB. That "Fisher" tag is cool-LOL. That Diggergirl is the best at eyeballing pipe stems & porcelain underwear buttons. Will you two adopt Dman? HH, Q.

What an awesome way to spend a honeymoon! That will be a hunt you won't soon forget regardless of what you guys dug (which was some pretty good stuff BTW). Enjoy this special time.

You two would have to pay me to adopt him.
