Mikey (Forino) is back home for good and he called me last night to see if we could get out.went to a cellar hole and worked it until it started raining.
some good targets at this site & we'll be back for sure!
a huge crotal bell broke at the bottom with a makers mark of OBO. a few clad coins a smaller crotal bell the mounted to a leather strap variety and at 1 inch a 79 VDI reading..expecting a memorial or wheatie this pops out.a most likely date of 1787 New Jersey colonial copper.

thanks! Mike got a spoon and some wings with a pin on the back.maybe 1940's i forgot what it said in the middle.has a crown on the top of the wings and said something like KCM junior ? i'm not sure if it's canadian or british.
 
Yeah, I gasped when i got to the last pic of the bell....i think because the rest of it is in such nice shape. Wish I could have been with you guys today, but hopefully in a few days.
