Silver in my front yard and at new permission

[Metal Headz]

I'm back with some recent finds. Monday I swung the NEL Thunder Coil over my yard for the first time and found a 1918 Merc partially masked by a small nail. Jumpy from 67 thru 84 VDI on one angle. Otherwise not much of a signal.



Yesterday I scored 2 new permissions across the street from my house. Late 1800s built homes. A lot of junk and clad. The exception was this partial piece of gas lamp lighter, a few wheaties, and 1896 Indian that is green and cruddy.




Today I knew I had to find silver somehow at the same permission. While working the back yard I unearthed a Sterling Thimble, Silverware, mystery find, and an old button.






Hopefully I'll uncover more. Thanks for looking, good luck out there!

Wow you dug some beautiful silver. Congratulations.

Killer silver my man. That thimble is really sweet. I have yet to find a silver one. Yours is intact and intricate, wow.

I can't tell the size of the third silver item, but it might be a piece of a chatelaine. The chains and multiple attachment points make me think this.

Your "old button" may need a better picture and scrutiny...Navy maybe?
