Thread: Went out detecting by the old well for a little while yesterday...

  1. #1

    Went out detecting by the old well for a little while yesterday...

    Got home from work yesterday and decided to detect for a bit before dinner. Went out to the old well and decided to try TTF on my etrac. Found the little toy metal gas pumps, 1924 Wheatie, a copper Peacock ring, a few coins, a Pepper's Flowers Butler, Pa Token, and a Silver Spoon.

    The spoon is from the Longue Vue Club in Pittsburgh, Pa. It used to be called the Millionaires Club, so have no clue how it ended up near my well!!!

    Anyways, enjoy the pics!!

    Very cool finds! |

    I love the toy gas pumps! Very unusual. I wonder how old they are? Possibly from the 1930s.

    I really like that silver spoon too! Wonderful old monogram on it, and very cool that it has the name of the club on the bottom side. Neat!
