Mama "V" forked over a bracelet + more

Well TN folks, I haven't been finding too much this week, but I'm working on a few new spots.
This is what I've found this week at the plantation house during three of my lunch breaks. It actually snowed today a bit and I LOVED IT! :thumbsup:
I've been detecting lately with less discrimination (set on "foil") and finding things in the plantation yard that I and others have passed right over before. An example is this 1898 "V" nickel I found in a spot next to the house that I personally have been over about 20 times. Same story with this old bracelet. I've been over that spot so many times before, but today I got an iffy signal and dug this beauty. Maybe the wet soil & cold weather helped too. :icon_scratch:
Last week you may recall in my posts that I had found 1902 & 1905 "V" nickels and was hoping to find on into the 1800's. Well today was finally that day. Not in great shape but still a nice readable date. :thumbsup:
Here are my finds:
*1898 "V" nickel
*1909 Wheat (no "S" or VDB") :-\
*1941 Jeff. nickel
*Old bracelet with black stones (onyx?)- Complete bracelet w/all stones in place. :thumbsup:
*Two lantern pieces. One has a thumbwheel dated 1899.
*Silver plated fork, harmonica reeds, railroad sign reflector, brass buckle, lead shot.

Thanks for looking folks.
Stay warm, :icon_sunny:
MM

Thanks Chris. I'll trade you for that ring. :tongue3: O.K., I'll trade you for 1/2 of that ring. :wink:
You guys going there Sunday? Looks like high 40's & rainy Sunday here. :-\
I'm supposed to go detect an old late 1800's house Sunday locally. I would love to meet my 08' goal by finding an 1800's silver or LC.
I'm running out of time. :(

P.S. Did you fool your lady with that fake gold coin? :icon_jokercolor:
 

Re: Mama "V" forked over a bracelet + more
