Howdy All. Got out for an hour 2 times this wk to my new favorite site...the old same place...a 1920's era grocery store/orange grove, and the diggin' was easy.

Dug some OK by me items.

I don't know what the odd shaped brass badge-like thing is, any ideas??

Scored my third silver half...it's a bit toasty but I am still stoked!

Thanks for the view...keep your coil low and your expectations high. C9

Nice silver! Maybe some one will know what the badge thing is, you may want to post it on the what's it forum.

Nice half! Just got my first silver half a few days ago (58 Franklin). Gotta love that feeling when you first see something like that in the hole! Congrats!

I like the half. Is that a 1914-D Lincoln?

Hello thrillathahunt. Thanks for the reply. Nope, sadly the '14 does not have a MM, the Red Book says it's only worth 75-cents in "Good" condition...that's more than most wheats I guess.

I did dig this '21 merc there a few days before though...key date...too bad it's toast. HH C9

very cool finds. I think the unknown item is part of a woman's sash buckle that dates to the art nouveau period (1890-1910)
