About 10 days ago we had 18-22 inches of snow on the ground in Southern NH. The recent warm spell wiped out a lot of snow in my area. I got out on Monday 12-29 for about 3 hours in Hollis,NH. It was about a 2 acre field and had less than 5% snow coverage. No frost in the ground. Worms were even near the surface. Maybe I should have brought my fishing pole! Found three flat buttons, two pennies: 1921 wheat and 1964 memorial, a thimble, small lock and relics. It was really nice to get out again before the ground froze solid until Spring!
Pic 1 Not sure what all of these are. A notched iron ring, rolled piece of lead, lead weight with pattern and hollow inside, part of a spoon folded over, part of an old lantern and a big whatisit in the middle.
Pic 2 easy. Pic 3 A 12 GA rifled slug with a star on the top, 16 GA REM-UMC SHURSHOT and 12 GA WESTERN SUPER-X shot gun shell bases. Three flat buttons. The top one has a gold tone finish. All other flat buttons had plain fronts.
Pic 4 & 5 front and back of same button. I can see PLATED on the top and what looks like ONDON on the bottom. Maybe it's LONDON and the L is not showing.
Pic 6 & 7 close up of the other two backs. One has IMPERIAL on the top and STANDARD on the bottom. On each side there is a design that looks like 4 petals (or clover leafs).
Pic 8 Another flat button found the week before.
