Loyal Moose + 1844 Silver 6

[Rick (Nova Scotia)]

Got out yesterday first time in a long time.
some sites starting to come on-line now.

Got a fob, first I heard of "LOYAL ORDER OF MOOSE" Founded 1888 in Kentucky, some chapters opened here in the atlantic provinces.

Also an intact crotal,
1844 6 pence, first silver in a long time too.
ginger beer top.
Thats all folks
I expect next hunt be better.

Nice going Rick! I know you're happy with that silver, and that moose fob is really cool too. Hope you can get back out again soon.

Rick , Great stuff , I love the fob and would like to see it cleaned up a bit (maybe just water and a toothbrush) also could we get a look
at the obverse of the sixpence ?

Already got 4 dirty Q-tips off the fob, and is about as good as I need / want it.

Here's a obverse pic. for you.

Not the relics you're used to digging but hey, when times are tough you can surprise yourself with a decent find!
As much as I like finding coins, the fob was the winner for me!

 

[Iron Patch]

That's pretty cool fob. The coin does very little for me by comparison, but I still don't throw them away.

That Moose find is awesome! All I can say is, Rick is back! Very nice sixpence as well.

I've been wondering if you have been doing any digging, looks like your back in action. That's a really good hunt-silver, crotal, copper, cool fob, nice variety! I'm naturally drawn to the six pence as I don't find things that old here.
