Treasures

So as you know I keep track of the change that I collect, total since my last update I have found .41. I found .28 at walmart (two separate trips), .02 in the mammoth cave campground. and the rest somewhere else.
this brings my total to: 6.63

However, I have also acquired a metal detector :D

So I thought, PERFECT! and I took it to my parents house on my last trip. Why you ask? Because where my parents live is a very historic place. No not like President Lincoln's boyhood home
but they live on a piece of property that used to house a church, the Church was originally built in the 1820s ot 1830s and was around until the 1950s then it was an apple orchard. 
So I started scanning the ground near the barn my parents built a while ago, because my mom found an Indian head penny there years ago.
I did find some interesting things!
A thing that used to hole music, some house numbers and assorted nails, one is from a horse shoe

I also found this stamped metal ring with a glass bead for the stone. The print is so delicate!
