Went Colonial hunting w/Earthworks...

...and all I got was this lousy T-shirt ...actually, most of you saw his great post, two rings, a great bell, eagle button, two barber quarters, two Indian head pennies, toy soldier...he hit this pathway between the house and the barn and found most of the stuff there...i did find 1897 Indian head and 1957 quarter i posted that day...he just sent me this photo of one of my other finds that day, and asked me to post, he always does the photographs..this one is a tin I thought was for a condom, but it's "Perfect Skin Food" -- "GeishaCream" -- some type of skin or lip stuff. Was hoping to find a coin inside, but no luck. It was hard to even read, but you can see he shined it up really good. (there was a little stuff caked inside)

Really great find ...Vantine was a prominant businessman in New York and was one of the first to carry oriental goods.About 1866, he came to New York city and with small capital began to import Chinese and Japanese goods, and to introduce the beautiful productions of Asiatic art to the attention of local buyers. He may thus be said to have become for the second time a pioneer, and, as before, in an almost unexplored field .........see
