    Couple thimbles, couple buttons etc.

    Went back to one of the sites I that I was clearing out some of the iron. Managed to sniff out 2 thimbles, a small parasol hub, watch chain thingy etc.



    Now I could detect for 2 more life times and not find the quantity or quality of shoe buckles that Dan has found. But today I found the world's smallest COMPLETE shoe buckle. Let's see you beat that Dan.

    Oldest find: 5,000 year old copper spearhead
    Oldest coin: 1699 William III halfpenny
    Purdiest coin: 1832 Capped Bust quarter
    Coolest find: USA button with blue threads still on shank
