Default Worst Hit = Best Find With Video.

Hello all. Got out for a bit with my dad today. Finds where slow. I got a Nife With GS on it, a Weird lead thing and this button wich was a bad signal that I dug anyway. Any info on it? My dad got a Boyscout neck slide and a Musket Ball...Was a nice day I love finding buttons. If anyone has any info on it I would love to hear it. On the back is a wreath going around the shank and it says STRONG that I can see... Here is a small vid of me in the field.

Great finds! I really like the button. I do have a queston. What is that next to the penny? Is that the musket ball? Just wondering.

Oh nice vid by the way, Beale.

Cool Knife

Hey GoldFever

Can't help with the rest of the stuff, but my sisters used to each have a green knife like that one. From the Girl Scouts in the early 60's. I think they're still in the family somewhere. This guy has one for sale for $60US.
boy scout knives, norman rockwell boy scout knife

Thanks
Leo
