Hi Folks,

Bobby and I went out for a few hours today and detected one of our favorite fields. Here are some of our finds :-)

Farm Field Finds for today 4-20-210

My favorite find for the day. I believe it is a ""Household Corps. Cent Guarde, Maison Militaire de L'Empereur, 1852-1870. One piece, convex brass with a birdcage shank; reverse blank. This type of construction was used on French military buttons during the 1860's."

Bobby found this one. We were trying to figure out what it is. Possibly an Asian symbol ?
