I was able to get out this past weekend, and a few hours Monday. The 2 cent is 1864, the buff 1937, the Barbers are 1899 and 1902. The bill holder isn't silver... and it has a weird modernist curved line over the design. My tombacs have been superb of late, as have my ox knobs :lol:

Great finds! That 2 cent sure shows some wear from heavy circulation. You sure that bill holder isn't silver? Sure looks it. I don't see any signs of corrosion from a base metal (if it were plated that is). HH, Dave.
 
Wow. That's the most worn out two cent I've seen dug! I especially love that money clip! It's a beauty. Great hunts!
 
Nice mixed bag of goodies there Drew :thumbsup02:
I've gotta agree with the others, that's one worn 2 center :shocked01:
Congrats on the keepers! :grin:
Even though ox knobs seem to be a, .....a less desirable find :lol:, I was actually hoping to find one while I was out buy you guys last fall.
 
Glad to see you are getting out Drew. Several nice finds in the mix. I have the twin to that ornate piece second from right in the top row.
 
I've been dying lately because the weather has been great but my machine is still in Oregon :needadrink::girlcry:

Nice assortment of goodies Drew :cheering: I would love to see the reverse of the money clip
 
Thanks, guys! Dave, I thought that clip was silver when I first saw it, but the back shows the underneath...unless that's just stain from the iron clip part..?

I kid about those knobs Tim, but I do like finding them....and if I only find a knob I don't consider it a skunking. I guess the problem is, although they're fun to find, they're always a let down in the hole as you think it's a copper.

Jeff, I also have a mate!:) Yours have a nice engraved design too?

Thanks, Dan.... do you know what that round buckle is for? I've found a few of them and one still had the iron pin. They are elegantly tapered.

Yep, nice engraved design Drew. I was thinking it was furniture related ??

Could that hoop be a nose ring for an Ox ??
 
I thought they were saddle decorations Jeff but furniture plates sound plausible too. I do know that my two were found at different sites but have the same decoration.

When I first found one of those hoops I thought it was a nose ring but then I found another with an iron pin, like a buckle.
