I think that's later than WW2. The earlier ones were pin back and weren't dished out like that on the back. My guess would be Viet Nam era or later. You listed 55 keeper items for a two hour hunt, that's a keeper about every two mins, not counting trash items.

Really nice haul! 🙌 Good job! And I agree with Dharmacy...that pin is post WWII...way different than my Dad's.

I see a Franklin hiding in that pile. That’s an amazing haul for a short time.

Congrats to you sir.
