I couldn't take it anymore i had to get out detecting. I went to a park I've never hunted before and unfortunately it must of been a dump site. lol! I did manage to find $2.83 in clad, a button, a keychain, and what appears to be a silver pin. The key chain says Harleysville mutual casualty company the back has a building and a date of 1950. The pin is marked sterling in 2 places still a little dirty. Not bad for 2 hours i guess. I hope you enjoy. p.s nothing too great coinnut lol

Nice looking brooch :shocked04: Still trying to ID the stones if they are not glass. The red ones are probably Garnets, the yellow - Citrine, the blue one and the one on the top right might be Moonstone, and the green ones may be Tourmaline (or maybe even Emeralds). Or I could be way off :lol: Nice finds.
