Cool Hand Fluke

Hunted 3 locations. The first one was a field where I dug up 17 World War II Dog tags last month. I went back to this same spot hoping to find some more. All the dog tags were foil readings on the meter, so I dug everything in the foil range and above. I was surprised to dig out another 5 WWII dog tags! This makes my total WWII tags from this area is now standing at 22! Why were so many here? It's still a mystery as to why so many in such a concentrated area?
My second spot was a park that has been pounded to death by a thousand other detectorist. I lucked out digging a 1944-P merc dime and two wheaties.
My third spot was an obscure little park with a 100' foot cliff above me. I dug out my second merc dime, it was also a 1944 but it had the usual "S" mint mark.
Also dug another mystery item A brass plaque that was awarded to the mayor of San Francisco. Joseph L. Alioto was the mayor of San Francisco from 1968 to 1976. He received the plaque that was attached to something from New York State? ..When he received this I do not know?
More wheaties and a lot of clad made for a great day of hunting!
