    Nice bunch of relics Dan. Not often do you get a bell with the clanger. 1818 was a good year for LCs. Most of mine are struck solid like yours. Beautiful trillium.....don't eat the berries.
    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

    I really want to find a cowbell! Those coins are in ridiculous shape! That 1818 looks like it had a powerful strike! Thimble is large too! Congrats, Dan!!

    Very nice Dan! Quietly tearing it up over the past few weeks eh? What a nice variety. Even the little thimble is a great find.
