I've been meaning to post this stuff from last week, but kind of got sidetracked ;D

1st is a button I got on a hunt with Jim (time4me) at a neat place he took me to. I believe it's a general service button c. WWI:

From the same hunt, I found this beautiful Gorham sterling silver 1895 Chantilly butter knife on the side of a hill.

Jim and I hit a little park in the afternoon and I half eye-balled this 9K white gold ring. The park (or shall we say swamp) was ultra muddy, and I saw a thin silver outline in the mud, and thought it was a pull-tab, but when I ran my coil over it, it didn't sound cruddy like a tab so I plucked it out of the mud and out came this 9K white gold ring (poorly marked 375 inside):

Aside from a few wheatbacks and a Sacagawea dollar, neither of us scored any interesting coins that day.

Next up are a few silvers from some hunting I did with Mark (beachbumm) last week:

From the same spot, but before Mark hunted it, I found this neat Art Deco pin (still has the pin on the back):

I found this little bronze statue of what appears to be an Indian or Asian goddess that was buried under a tree (the trees have been good to me lately), sitting up perfectly like someone did it intentionally:

Yesterday I got out with Jim & Mark and although we weren't getting quite of old of coins as I'd hoped, we all scored two silver coins each and a few other goodies (I'll let Mark post his awesome find...hint: it's BIG and it's GOLD!). I found a silver washington, silver rosie, wheats, a silver wedding ring and a little silver pin with jewels. Also found a neat 1958 dog tag from Stockton. I've been wanting to find an older dog tag for a while, so my next goal is to find a pre-WWI dog tag, and a pre-1900 :dog:
