Default Thursdays Finds

Spent about 4 hours at a junk filled home site...It had so much junk that the Quattro threshhold was silent most of the time. Ive been there 2 times now and no coins yet but yesterdays finds were pretty cool.
Im not sure what the baby spoon is made of but it has some white corroision on it and the jar lid according to my investigation was made between 1920 and 1964. The lady who lived on the site said she was 65 years old and had never used one like it before. I found another one like it but the porcelain liner was in shards in the hole with the ring. All in all a fun day hunting.
Happy New Year to all
Phil & Bonnie

I think that the four hours you spent there was well worth it. It tell me that there should be some good stuff in the ground that you can find. Don't give up on that site yet.

Cool finds there Rotty, keep plugging away to get the older coins.
The jar lid is made of Zinc.
