Havent been on in some time, havent hunted in some time, but the fields are being harvested and the weather is mild.

Both from fields where pre-1900 houses once stood, but are gone..except for some goodies :D

Gold old pendant, 1865 I.H. Victorian pin, suspender buckle, onyx or glass button, spoon handles, and I believe part of a carpenters folding rule.

Congrats on the gold! That's always a treat.
I just wish the ground around here was as kind to old copper is your ground is. Even early wheats come out crusty, green, and barely readable. That reminds me...there's a park near me with a field that is only mowed a couple times a year. Used to be a farm. I'll have to swing by and see if it's been cut yet.
 
nice finds , i MD a school were it look like some one MD before me ,they hit play equipment but i found they did not hit the grass areas and I did good there

Thanks Doug, I was wondering what was held in the oval opening!
 
Normally I find Georgian fob seals with the intaglio missing, this is just intaglio with its metal surround.

Congrats on some nice finds. In the photo with the pottery, what is that thing on bottom left? I found the exact thing at a creek crossing on an old wagon road.
