I decided to work the small lawn in front of the Church,
all I managed was this Button.
the Back is too Rusty to tell if it's marked.

Any Ideas ?

 

[jeff of pa]

I'm Familiar with FIRESTONE Tires,
But I have no Idea What this Aluminum Thing is.
It's about the same size as a Match Pack.

 

[jeff of pa]

I also Pulled out what looks like a Chewed Musket Ball.

and this 1942 Wheat.

and Buffalo Nickel

 

[jeff of pa]

and since Nickels seemed to be Popping out at me here.

I wasn't "Too Surprised" (I Lie, I was :P )

I got a Smile when I found these

1901 & 1911

Liberty V Nickels

But No Silver

The button is awesome. I don't think it's Civil War era, but I could be wrong.

 

[Boobydoo]

Great finds. This grove keeps producing.

I think the Firestone thing is a airline holder that mounts on an airtank.
I think the bottom turned up part is now overbent touching the main body.
If it was spread a bit, an airline fits in rather nicely, keeping it off the ground.
Smiles!

...if you didn't know (which is unlikely), soldiers used to chew there bullets to relieve stress or help with thirst...

Great finds

[jeff of pa]

Thanks Everyone for Looking.


Digginman the Button is just a Cheapie
Coat Button. But I like the Design also.

BDoo Thanks. that makes sense. and the bottom is slightly crimped.


GC Yea I'm aware of the Practice.
The area I'm searching has had small French & Indian war Skirmishes, Between the Indians & the Troops from the Nearby Forts,
however The Musket Ball isn't white, it's more of a Light tan (the photo color is Misleading).
I sure it was Chewed though. but at what time I Don't Know.

Badger You'r absolutely Right.
Both came up way below Nickel Even lower then Buffalo
on the meter.
That's why they make me Smile, Because I'm expecting to be Cleaning another piece of trash up, Not seeing a Coin.

Fill Your Tank Quick & get down here

[mchamby]

Wow, you certainly found some old stuff today, nice nickels. I like how you draw us in with your post saving the best for last. OH, and by the way, how much rain would you like we have had more than enough and the last two nights I have been chased away from fishing by thunderstorms and high winds. We need a short break, come get all you want.

[The Seeker]

You have a nice selection on coins and relics from that grove.....Nice going!

 

[Bavaria Mike]

Nice finds! The button with the coat of arms is hard to ID without any makers marks, most European countries use those lions on their arms. HH, Mike
