well was out for a short hunt today with Coinnut not much to find though :bangahead01: . just a plain flat button and a 1925 wheatie ( George must have cursed me ) and then i got a very ratty sounding shotgun shell signal :shocked04:stretcher: ( something mixed with iron is whats going through my mind ) and out pops this very nice ornate little shoe buckle . first complete one of the year
WOW! nice find! never seen complete iron guts! thumbsup01
THATS A BEAUTY!
That buckle is sweet!! But I got a surprise of my own :shocked04: Besides a real nice Pewter button, that little canister that you told me would have half dimes in it? :ticked: :ticked: :mad: It's just as good. A religious ornament, with I believe Joseph and Jesus? (or a bad image of Mary lol) The statue is probably silver and that is a glass cylinder around them. I wasn't expecting that to be in there lol Actually I wasn't expecting anything to be in there at all :yes: I find the oddest things rofl Must be my wacko personality that draws me to them. :twirlingeyes: So it was a short hunt, but well worth it.
hey thats pretty unexpected and cool , never seen anything like it . i'm surprised the glass made it out in one piece with all the frost and water freezing going on for the last hundered years or more.
That appears to be a St. Christopher statue... might be another one though... very cool find... RickO
Wow! Cool finds guys! :shocked04:stretcher: That buckle sure looks great, and the cylinder with the religious figure is one sweet find. You sure do find the oddest items, George. lol But they are very nice ones. :)
wow that's pretty cool G! and yeah at what dan said! unbelievable that the glass wasn't cracked.very cool short hunt duuudes! thumbsup01
That makes more sense. Isn't Christopher the protector of travel or is it children? I knew Joseph wasn't gonna watch Jesus lol :embarrassed:Quote:
