I had about 4 hours to kill this afternoon so I head over to the farmhouse property where I dug the 1943 Walker half and silver pocket watch cover last month. I wasn't too successful out the the soybean fields or the collard patch, so I headed to the front yard. Not expecting to find much since I've been over it a few times already, I finally found a few keepers. The three keepers were all found within 30 minutes just before I was going to head home.
I had a great signal by some boxwoods and could tell it was a deep sweet signal. Just as I dug the plug my cell phone rang.
It was my long lost Tnet buddy Andy (DD-777) on the other end. I told him I had just dug a silver quarter with a flying eagle on the back, but was unsure what it was. Of course he thought I was full of crappe'.
I told him he was my good luck charm. After a bit of chit chat I grabbed my cameras and headed back to the plug to see what exactly it was. All I could see as far as the date was a "3". After checking my Red Book I found out I had dug a 1923 SLQ. This is my oldest coin so far from this property. ![hello2 :hello2: :hello2:](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/hello2.gif)
Here's a video to enjoy:
Once I had pictures of the SLQ I was pumped to stay and find more.
Within minutes I has some sort of oval tag that all I could read was "Employee" on the front. I was hoping it was a chauffeurs license, but that was not to be. ![Sad :( :(](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/sad.gif)
After that I dug a bracelet about 20' away. With those three items in my pouch I called it a day.![thumbsup :thumbsup: :thumbsup:](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
*1923 SLQ
*"Employee 1400 Naval Air Station Norfolk, Va" tag
Any idea what this tag would have been used for or how old it may be?
*Bracelet says "Ralph Boyd Smith" on the front and "Love Elva" on the back
*Possible arrowhead?
Is this an arrowhead?
*Asst'd other goodies.
Thanks for looking,
MM
