1850's pocket drop,large cents,vatican medal
Had a long day yesterday from sun up to sun down.Every time i was ready to quit i would find something!Wish i had that problem more often.And for once it was a good thing i broke a detector.Started with garret re hitting spot with my smallest loop to catch any stragglers i missed with etrac.Got the hatchet head and some clad and a wheat cent.Then snapped the arm bracket in to.So hiked back to car and got e-trac and headed to a different spot i hadn't done yet do to severe crap and poison everywhere.All i got for several hours was clad,junk and wheat cents.Then BAM! a dateless large cent!Couple more hours not much.Getting ready to leave and decide to hit one last spot.Got a weird sounding mixed signal.And out pops the seated dime.Then i scan spot,still have a mixed signal.Dig some more,out comes a flying eagle penny(and before i cleaned it you could clearly see it,but it was in flaky layer)And still had a signal.Dug some more and got one of the 2 clearly dated large cents.That got me going again for a few more hours and i got the other large cent and the flat buttons.The gold one is cool.Wish my military ones were that nice.Even checked book but see nothing like it.Also got 2 more 2 ringer mini balls.All 4 eagle cents i got threw the years had a mini ball found near by.But only 1 was in a camp.
Only thing i could find on Vatican medal is council was from 1962-65.And it is a heavy silver medal.Not sure what its made out of no markings.Also not sure if this came from their or was bought over here.Very neat though.Any ideas on button?Other flat button has a cross on it.Thick one only has markings on back.
