I found Florence's silver thimble and more!

I think it has almost been two weeks since I have been able to get out and detect. Got to a great old 1831 farm today that I have been dying to detect. Found a silver thimble with the name Florence engraved on it. Also a dateless large cent, an 1861 Indian, a nice old eagle button and a button with a stag on it. Also a small flower button, 1941 Merc, a cool old pin with three kids playing, a catholic medalion a musket ball, horse bridal rosette and a Tangee Rouge top. All in all a wonderful day. Thanks for looking...Lance

Incredible finds, comfy. Poor Florence is going to prick her finger....there's no top on that thimble. ;)

I never do peoples yards.....looks like I need to start. :o

Wow, does the children at play have signs of a pin on back? is it metal..Appears to be in very good shape even with the small crack... Super finds!

Comfy,

Nice photos.

Re: I found Florence's silver thimble and more!

Wow, great finds! That pin is super-ooper cool.

When I finally find a large cent (I'll probably have to head east), it darn well better have a date on it. I don't think I could stand it if my first one had no date.
