It's been a very good week.

I was able to get out to several cellar holes this week. Only an hour here and there between weeding the garden for spring, but it sure paid off. Found a nice type I 1917 standing liberty quarter, an 1869 shield nickel, a 1857 flying eagle cent, two Indian heads, 1906 and 1875, suspender clasp, some other type of gilded hanger or clasp, a really nice button with grapes and grape leaves, part of a pewter spoon, most of a crotal bell, a nice pewter bell with the clanger in tact, and a strange name plate. It says Mrs. A. G. Delano, Aged 20 years. At first I thought it was from a casket, but my wife suggested possibly from an old painting. It is bent in half and has been in a fire. Also a nice brass tag that says Patent on it. Thanks for looking...Lance

Great relics and coins Lance.
 

Re: It's been a very good week.

Great finds there, Lance.
 

Re: It's been a very good week.

Great group of finds, really like the coin. But...... that bell has some mystery to it, I'd be curious to know more about it. When you said "aged 20 years" it made me think of some sort of liquor? I'm note sure I'd wnat to see much else aged that long ??? :o? Nice haul!
 

Re: It's been a very good week.

Re: It's been a very good week.

Really great finds. Can you believe after 40 years of hunting I still haven't found one of those bells?
