Brian found these great finds
which include old coins, rings,
broaches, tokens and other items
. He is fairly new to the hobby
and found these nice items in a
short time with his Shadow X-2.
I believe you will be seeing
more about his finds!

WHILE DETECTING IN THE WOODS
THIS HUNTER RECOVERED A VERY
INTERESTING FIND. TWO PIECES
OF SILVER WHICH HAVE BEEN SEMI
MELTED . YOU MAY NOTICE THE
IMPRINT RING ON THE ITEMS LEFT
FROM THE CONTAINER IN WHICH THEY
WERE MELTED. AS YOU CAN SEE BY
THE SIDE VIEW IT IS THICK AND
DID NOT REALLY MELT DOWN WELL.
THESE WEIGHT IN AT ABOUT 6
POUNDS. NICE FIND! AND MAYBE
ONLY A BEGINNING OF MORE! |

|
MAYBE HARD TO NOTICE , BUT THERE
IS A " W " CARVED IN THE TOP
SIDE OF THE SILVER MASS, AND AT
THE BOTTOM IS A CROSS, AND
POSSIBLY AN " X " AND AN ARROW.
VERY INTERESTING! HUH? |

This photo of
the Capital Traction Co. Button
is actually in great condition,
however the glare at the top of
the photo makes it appear to be
bent. The button is made of the
same two piece fashion as the
civil war eagle buttons. Capital
Traction Co. was the name of the
railroad that ran through that
area of Virginia. |

Look closely and you will be
able to see the image of a lady
on this broach. I am not sure
what it made of , appears to be
encased in gold, however surface
of the broach feeds like pearl
like material of some sort. Can
anyone give a period date for
this item? |
