Big silver and other neat things

[skierbob]

Just got back from a ski trip to Vail, Colorado. Decided to hunt a wooded area next to a rec center, where I had found some silver before I went skiing. The ground in the woods is still soft enough for digging. Found a few interesting items. The first thing was a lady's compact with a Washington medal on it from the Sesquicentennial Exposition of 1926. Then I found a junior police badge. Next, a Girls High School pendant on a chain. The next item gave me a loud, big silver signal. Unmistakable sound, I knew it was either a silver quarter or a silver half. Turned out to be a 1917 Walking Liberty Half. Then another big signal turned out to be a Mount Vernon Whiskey Token. I also found a V Nickel and a Buffalo Nickel. Also a few pennies, including an Indianhead and four wheaties, which I couldn't get good pictures of.

Here are the pictures. Hope they come out right. Got a little mixed up there. The first one should be the Sesqui-compact.



Next is the junior police badge:



and the Girls High pendant:



Next is the Walker:

Buffalo and V Nickels:



Here are two silvers I found there before I went skiing. A well worn 1915-D Barber Quarter and a 1943 Australian Shilling:




Thanks for looking.
