Went with the gf out to a new set of old homes. We found tons of shattered bottles and mason jar lids. Everything was dated around the 1930s, which matched the aerials I had from 1937. The debris field is huge, but we squeaked out some keepers....or really she got the best finds
First hit for her was this nice old brooch. It looks silver plated, no makers marks. But with my loop I can see a nice plating on the edge. It's not thin like a foil and scrubbing with a brass brush didn't phase it either. Any input would be nice.
Then she pulls off a pocket watch case from "White Star Lines" which cleaned up ok too. I found the massive strap buckle (still with leather) and glass bottle too.
Check it out, thanks for looking!
