This mornings hunt started out well with some hunting around old ruins of what is most likely a 1930's era cabin. Some foundation and chimney are left. Not much luck there buy did find a ton of copper flashing from the roof. I should have hunted it all and took it! I didn't though, decided the are was to littered with trash and look "Snakey" So we detected a crick that runs near by and started to hunt a small trail river side. Looks to be from hikers and fishermen. Nice little crick. Well the banks of that crick may have given my on of my best finds yet! A pocket watch! The glass face is broken and either corroded or just packed with dirt so I cant see the face of the watch. There are no markings on the out side I believe it could possibly be silver. It gave me a high 80's VDI. It was underneath a fallen rotted out tree I had to move.
Other Items found were:
Some clad and
Unmarked ring that says "princess" (It gave me a 56 VDI.)
Spoon
button (jeanswear & cargos plugg)
Shotgun casing (Western Field No 12)
Mining hatchet head
small track spikes
So can any one give me any advice to ID and clean this pocket watch?
