Went back to my trash hole field. Still digging everything trying to clear away the trash. Found 3 more wheats, 1902 Indian, 1870 shield nickel, watch fob and another few more surface marbles. The clover looks like silver but no markings.

Did you have to clean the Indian and the shield nickel much? If so, how did you clean them? Most of the shield nickels I've found were pretty crusty! Great finds! Congrats!
