    It isn't a flower broach, it's Veteran or Patriotic related. Those are two crossed flags, with something I can't make out in between.

    I appreciate that you are excited about horse tack. So many detectors write it all off as junk. Horses are a huge part of our history & were the most valuable part of many people’s lives.

      I love finding horse tack and buckles, even enjoy finding horse shoes. it helps paint a picture of what the area was used for and the activities that happened way back when

      Horses were indispensable! Almost more than cars for us. We can get on a bus or train to travel long distances, but for them, it was a horse or nothing.

    I believe a strong measure of a man is in the friends he attracts and keeps. It certainly seems like I might be correct in your case as I find the friends who claim you are classy, stand-up sort of folks who all have an aura of dignity much like your own. Bravo, Brad. Your son is a very fortunate lad.

    I had surgery last week and I am feeling better than I have in years, and as the snow falls here in Vermont I watch you digging in a field of clover and I can't wait to get out there and start detecting again.
    Sweet Digs Brad !!

    That's an eagle in the middle of two crossed flags, definitely patriotic or even military. Great video! Keep them coming!

  • @karentrimmer
    @karentrimmer Рік тому +2

    My first thought on the jewelry piece was of a necklace I had as a child back in the early 1960s. The charm was of a descending dove which represents baptism. These charms were quite common at the time for necklaces, charm bracelets and even anklets. I've seen other posts saying "eagle & crossed flags" which also sounds plausible. I can see where the flower idea also works. You're able to see it better than we are.

    • @josmith4405

      I think he needs to watch your channel to learn about. Hammered Roman silver coins, especially the coin with the CON and OCT, on it. It looked to me like one of the coins that you find out in the fields of Perthshire! (Love your channel)

    • @kimnkruzin

      I recomment you watch The Scottish Detectorist channel. Very educational. He finds Hammered Roman coins. Kinda like the Silver coins you found. Also Gorgeous Georgian silver coin.. and the small coin with a CON on it... its old roman I believe. Good luck! Keep hunting.

IMHO the pick of the day was the Federal Shield .. a nice addition for any collection .. Thanks again for posting.
