Default 1907 was a good year

Woo Hoo!!! Went out today after work to a place where there are doing some utility work and tearing up the streets and that chunk of grass between the sidewalk and the street. The day started out pretty slow, lots of misc. iron junk, even though I discrim. out iron... got me on this one. Anyway, found some pretty nice stuff, I've attached pictures of the finds from tonight. One I think is a bracelet, a kewl eagle button and a heart button. Found the Barber 10 feet from my car, was working my way back to call it a night and there it was, only about an inch deep I've got it soaking in some soapy water to try and get that tarnish off the face, hopefully can read liberty on head band. Also, if anyone has any idea what the egg shaped thing is let me know, it magnetic, sorry for the bad photo of that one. I hope everyone else has the luck I had tonight.
