Default Walking Liberty+Cool Buckle!!

Hey all, went to an ald house today. After digging so much junk with high VDI's, i was suprised to pull out my first half dollar-1917. She really is a beaut!

Also found this cool buckle, anyone know anything about it?


Got to another house later found some clad, wheaties, a dog tag, and a 1919 canadian penny. Found this cool bottle lighter too.

it's actually a funny story. i got permission from the owner last weekend, who said there was a couple renting the house and the owner currently wasn't living there. i went last weekend and everything was fine. this weekend i went again and the renters werent home, so i decided they went away for the weekend cause they were gone for about an hour. they eventually pulled in teh driveway and the lady told me to leave. she was the renter, and allthough i had permission from the actual owner, i just decided to leave to not cause trouble. :(

Great Walker...the buckle looks almost colonial in design (to my untrained eye)...was the site you hunted established that long ago?
