Since I have more time on my hands the past couple days I have been able to hit up a couple more parks, with some good results. The clad count went down under 2 bucks, but I did come up with 5 wheaties, a 9mm round, 2 sterling rings, an AMC key, and an old complere suspender clip! The clip cleaned up pretty nice and even still functions. If anyone has any info on the clip which is stamped "Lion Brace", I would greatly appreciate it. Guessing around 1880 to early 1900s due to the home ages in the area.

Nice job on the rings! Only ones I find are tiny little things

That is a beautiful suspender clip! I found one with a lion on it a few years ago except my lion has an arrow in his back. I wonder if it is the same brand as yours? Best wishes and HH, Dave.

Nice rings, they look like they have a little weight to them. Snow be gone!! WD
