THINK I MIGHT BE ON TO SOMETHING

[johnash15]

My 10 year old and i went out today to a site that I had given up on. I hadn't spent much time there because I was only pulling turn of the century relics. We spent about an hr there this afternoon and came out with these. I think it might date back further than i thought. The flat button has a L&T FINE GILT backmark.



















My son found a 1950s era bottle dump and enjoyed that too.

Sweet! That button has to be at least mid-1800's.

I'm assuming L&T is Lewis & Tomes?

Nice spot, nice finds, You probably already know, but please make sure your son has some good gloves on and understands he is digging in glass. Tell him I like his bottle finds. I hope he enjoys hunting with you, does he want a detector? Whoop's, I just looked at your join date, I'm sure you know what your doing. I hope you buy him a AT Pro, ha lol.

I'm a T2 guy myself. He has a Fisher F2. He enjoys it, but he's not obsessed like me. Lol.
