( "Sterling" Lock ) & a Merc...

Hello all,,,
The ol' Cz fired back up the day after it quit on me so, I took it back out today... I found the 1919 Merc at only 5" down, it must have been on edge because it was only hitting a high-tone in two directions... One of my other partners found a 1905s Barber Dime, but the coolest find for the day was this little lock that my cousin found by a tree... ( DaveDigs ), he doesn't post much,, but he's out there... It's marked on the back, on the loop at the top it reads, " Pat. App?? ". Looks like maybe " Pat. Appld For ", and on the bottom just above the rivet it's marked, " STERLING "... If anyone has any clues to the age, or any other info on it, it would be greatly appreciated...
Good luck & Happy hunting~

My partner found a sterling bracelet under old sidewalk , that has the same sterling lock( or close to it), and he found nothing newer under there except for a couple seated coins.

Thanks all,,,
That's pretty cool a few people have found some like it... I figured it was pretty unique...
The park it was found in had a lot of traffic back in the early 1900's, It's the place I call the " Indian Grave yard "...
The dirty marks on it are only dirt, it hasn't been cleaned yet...
Good luck, & Happy hunting~

? ? ? Hey great finds!!? ? I'm beginning to think your detector has a mind of its own.

? ?You haven't seen Rod Serling lurking around, have you?
