Went out for 1.5 hrs today, but it was cold and rainy here in Phoenix(that's correct, cold and rainy in Phoenix). We haven't had rain in 140+days so the rain was the actual first find of the day.
Anyway found this metal button. I can make out a Statue of Liberty on it. The back is missing the shank. Any ideas?
Also found this 25th anniversary Peter Piper Pizza token. Apparently these came out in 1998.
Found $.76 in clad then had to call it quits as I was soaked anv very cold.

Interesting looking "stuff" you found there.

Glad to hear you got rain. I heard the air quality was getting bad there.

What kind of areas do you search?

I hunt mainly parks. I've been working this particular park since December pretty hard. Unfortunately I only get there once a week. The site that this park sits on now was the first jail site in this p[articluar city apparently built in 1920s. I've found a couple of what I think are old buttons and some modern jewelery and about $17.00 in clad. Very little old coins as I'm sure it's been hunted. However, the hits are non-stop and so frequent that I'm just digging really solid signals which means I'm just getting surfce stuff. Once I cleant that alll up I'll go back and turn down disc and dig everything. I could be there for years there are so many hits. Granted a lot of it is junk, but I'm sure I'll find something if I try hard enough. (Was that too much information?)
