went on a solo hunt to a new cellar hole.it was tough coaxing stuff out but there's targets here and i plan to return. a beat up old pewter button,a been in the ground too long cloak button, a neat little designed 2 piece button and a suspender buckle spill near a tree.all in pretty much the same hole. last but not least i got this what appears to be an eyeglass arm.it's not stamped silver but it is no doubt. what puzzles me is the extended piece that slides back n forth? now fully extended if your ears are that far back on your head i'd say thers something wrong with ya rofl. if anyone knows what purpose this served please chime in :groovy:

You on a solo hunt?? :dontknow: No friends like me huh? lol Nice to hit a site that has some targets :clapping: I have no idea on the slide thing although it looks very familiar :dontknow: Maybe it will come to me rofl But a good relic hunt just the same. You have plenty of suspenders, that's for sure lol
