Mining town toy miners pick!

[diggingthe1]

We have had lots of rain and the ground is saturated!! I went back to some old spots and sure enough some things popped out! I love the pick!!! I plan to make a handle. 1912 V nickel and a ceramic game piece maybe. There might be a little silver in the cufflink. Silver is very scarce this year, like usual. I'm not sure if the flower piece is a button, no attachment on the back. I dug the 1 earlier this year. Old numbers and small are fun to collect. When I get to 1or 20 I'll post them. I hope you all get out and find more keepers. Happy Hunting.!!!

Sweet ! I got the #5 ,and the letter D . I think your mini pick head was a give away at one of the saloons or parades, Nice find !!! Oh , what I think you called a ceramic game piece looks like a doll arm that had a cloth body,the other arm went to a solid body

That Arkansas area would be exciting to hunt. I imagine there are trade items down that way somewhere! The little tea cups are fun to find also.
