My meager finds from the battle of broken knee

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

:hysterical: finally got around to cleaning my meager finds from the detecting day from hell.
a busted tombac button that had a design on it,a small ball button,a plain flatty,a pewter spoon bowl & a broken victorian era womens (collar?) sash type buckle.the bar below the buckle was attached to the sash but loops broke.came out of hole in 2 pieces.my knee is half the size of a football now and hobbling around.i may have torn my meniscus the dr said

this is what you chipped a knee cap and torn your miniscus for just shameful Dave \ I would of expected you doing the great bodily harm to yourself only running away or defending some rare precious coppers from the coin starving hoards or at the very least a couple of jealous detecting buddies like Todd and Johnny blaze (aka Phil Simms) . better heal up fast my friend

its not all treasure dan,sometimes it's the thrill of the hunt.in my case it was a spill >

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

Dan,how old are these tiny ball buttons? once in awhile one pops out.never get a definitive answer on when these were used along with the zuoave ball buttons,this little guy looks much more primitive that the mid 1800's style Z-buttons

Dave does that one even look like it had a back to it ?? some don't but most do . the ones that do are the newer types early to mid 1800's but the open end ones are colonial.

Well never let it be said that Metal Detecting is not a contact sport

Are you going to be listed like the NFL....PUP....physically unable to perform? :white:

[Lodge Scent]

Awww man, that is a bummer Dave!

You know I recently heard of this clinic in Florida...Biogenisis or something like that...ask Alex Rodriquez, he'll know .....supposedly heals you up real quick....you'll be swinging the coil like an 18 year older in no time

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

[Lodge Scent]

You are a good sport Dave. It is also a sign of respect. When the king is down, that's when you pounce lol
