I had this one hole, ya see....

The pinpointer kept indicating a target but there was this big rock in the way.

I kept rolling this thing back and forth until I finally pried it out.
Understand that it was completely covered in dirt. Looked like a big rock.

Here's my "rock" again, just a little more cleaned up.
This huge thing is solid brass!! LOL

Did manage a neat general purpose button:

I believe it says "WATERBURY BUTTON CO, WATERBURY CT." on the back.

Thanks for peeking!

Awesome finds, I especially love the dog tag and military button. What is the date on the dog tag? I can't read the third digit. Sounds like a fun day out in the field!

My dad calls them "potato rocks" lol! I found a huge fifteen pound completely smooth tan quartz with a flat base when digging a trash pit with my dad at my old house back in 2013 (he coined the word "potato rock" after digging it :laughing7:). I carved the date in it, and put it in my garden as a stone for my cat memorial garden (which grew catnip lol). When I moved this June I brought it to my new house, and have it sitting in my front yard. The date carved in it means more now, as this trash pit was my first exposure to relic hunting, great fun with my dad, and was one of my favorite things from my old house. Sorry for my off-topic rambling lol!
