Freshwater weekend finds
No gold, no silver but did manage two dated Buffalo nickels (one each day), a few wheats, an old Canadian penny (1940) and a part of a pin or broach? I thought I had a clad half dollar due to the size, I couldn't tell since it was frozen and I had to hold it in my hand to melt the water off of it. Turned out to be a pin or broach that was pressed, it must be made of copper since it has the green corrosion on it. It has the following markings "Elizabeth II Dei Gratia Regina F.D." and it appears this was at one time also on coins.... any help with figuring out what it is/was and dating it would be greatly appreciated.
