We have had several days of cold gloomy weather here in Maine. Lows in the 40s and highs in the 50s. Brr! I had to turn the heating back on! This is almost summer and we are all complaining. But today the sun finally came out and it got up to 72F with a nice breeze so I dug the flea market site for an hour or so and came back with lots of bits of jewelry.
The nicest find is this sterling rifle brooch. 3 words that don't come together often!
It's a bit dinged up and the clasp pin broke off, but I'll take it!
A few nice mounted stones. The clear one is housed in sterling:
This piece of junk jewelry came out in 3 pieces:
And my first thimble. I was hoping it would be a silver one from the civil war, but it's aluminum and pretty thrashed:
It's always fun seeing what comes out of the dirt!
That reminds me, I have an idea for a detectorist bumper sticker:
"DETECTORISTS DO IT IN THE DIRT". 😀
