First hunt was on Jan 03, it gave up few things, among a wheat, an earring, and a 1943 P war nickel, this my third year in a row scoring silver on my first year hunt.

Subsequent hunts have yielded more coins, 1906 and 1908 Indians, some wheats, among a 1909 S, but not VDB. Another 1943 P war nickel ( Silver # 2 for the year ) , some buffaloes, a transit token, etc. I Picked up the silver 1958 S quarter from a roll when i stopped to get something to eat from my sisters lunch truck.

Many relics, old cuff links, collar stud, religious pendants, marbles, a nice Devil Dogs ring, research says it dates from the mid 1930s it came inside quaker oats boxes.

Nice variety of finds. Cool looking coins and I always like finding marbles. Congrats

Yes I also have a thing for those round friends, takes me back to my childhood playing with my friends after school
 

Heck ya 8R. Way to go on finding that 1909 S wheat. That's a great find, even without the VDB. I found a 1909 plain last year, was pretty bummed it wasn't the real deal, especially where I'm at. Finding a 1908 S Indian or 1909 S Indian or Wheat would be awesome. Well done!

W this spot is producing lots of late Indians post 1905 but not any 08, 09 S so far.
Im sure u will find one of these any day.
 

congrats on the coins and relics. I have dug two 1909's but both bare, still looking for the S and VDB. HH

I think i have a also found 1909 plains, but unsure how many. I do want to go through my wheats and see what else I have
 

I have a 1909 vdb with no S do you wanna sell that S lol Great start for 2019 keep at it
Lol, or how much are u looking to get for ur VDB initials ?
 

Very Nice Fine's
 

Nice array of finds. Good stuff to start the year off.

I hadn't noticed that you pulled this from a park in Baltimore. I wonder how (un)common they were in the East before coin boards with mint marks in the 1930s started people culling them from circulation. Yours proves there were some!
