New spot and Old spot finds!

[ArmyJoe]

So I hit the New spot I found the Cracker Jack token, Shell Token, n '53 Rosie at. I didn't find anything except the Buckle which was 14" deep.

Everything else came from a park just up the road from the house. The boss gave me permission to get out for a few hours today. I focused my attention on a gently sloping hillside I've never paid attention to. So I pulled a silver chain, a wheat penny that I can see VDB on with a loop, it's pretty toasted! Oh and the partial token that has a 3D image of someone on it. Anyone find anything like this? I'm thinking a baseball token of some sort.

Nice big chain. It does look like a baseball coin, there have been several different companies that did promo's with them.

Nice finds. There were baseball coins back in the early 1970's.

I figured it was fairly modern since it was only about 4" down, but the park goes back to the early 1930's. I dig every repeatable signal at this site. The necklace came up as a nickel signal on my Safari, counting on digging a nickel but was happy it turned out to be even better!

Nicely done, , always good to come home with silver.

Thanks OBN! I have been on a bit of a streak with the Rosie's lately. I can't remember the last time I found a Merc, it's been that long! I'm soaking the Wheatley in Olive oil, but I'm afraid it's way too far gone even if it turns out to have a mint mark. You're having a killer year and can't wait for your post when you hit your goal!
