I was glad to get out for a couple of hunts Sunday and Monday with Dave and Brad. Had a good time finding some pretty cool relics, artifacts, jewelry, and coins. My favorite find was this Gold Plated Scabbard Hanger Band which was what attached a sword scabbard to a belt. It is part of a Patriarch’s Militant (Uniformed Ranks of the IOOF) Ceremonial Sword Scabbard made between 1893 and 1923.

Patriarchs Militant IOOF Sword Identification
Also found a Sterling ring with a Turquoise stone, 7 Wheaties, a 1951 Italian 10 Lire coin, a pocket spill of a Wheat and 2 Mercs (28 & 45-d), a Tax Token, a heavy Brass number tag, a sample container of some type of salve (I guess), and a very cool WW2 Air Force Distinguished Service Medal (which I lost going to the truck)
but was able to find exact pictures of, with a similar, but less red patina, on the internet.
Thanks for lookin!
