3 Merry Widows and more
Well I went to an older home to hunt today. Not much in the way of clad but some cool items.
I found a childs tea set: one cup (broken but mostly intact). A knife, and a spoon. The lady that let me hunt this house said it was hers as a child. I am going to clean it up and give it to her. I also found a 3 Merry Widows Tin. I will post a link to this item and let you read it for yourself. I am still chuckling. 3 Three Merry Widows - Who were they? Mine is in pretty rough shape I will get a picture as soon as I can. Another cool find was a good luck token? I thought it was a quarter at first. On one side it reads "I bring good luck carry me". On the other it reads "Standard". I really like this object. I also found one side of a square tin or compact type item. No writing at all on this but I like it. My clad was a bit slim in this yard. One quarter (2001), 2 dimes (1981, 1969). 15 pennies one of which was a wheat. I hunted for 6 hours in this yard. I am pretty happy with the results, Beale.
