    I like to believe that if our ancestors would have known that someday there would be an invention that detects metal, and there would be future generations digging up the earth to learn of them, they would have left us more. So if you must litter, please litter coins and jewelry.

    Greg, the Victorian button was over the top. Wonderful person finds. The mystery item could be the top to talcum powder? So happy you finally received the permission to hunt there. It was meant to be. 👍👏😀🇺🇸

    • @FindingAmerica
      @FindingAmerica  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks so much guys and once I figured out who to ask for the permission, it was the easiest permission that I ever had. Great people! Thanks for the help with the mystery find and I will have updates on them next week! ATB Greg

    G'day Greg, You say you found a button of a similar age with a Dragon on it, perhaps you just found George! Ive been eyeing off an old town hall in a small township nearby, built in 1890 next to a lake, I just have to get the nerve up to chase a permission for it. Crossing my fingers! Seems they didn't have room for the extra P on that odd item. Cheers Mate!
