A good day of detecting

[DeepBeeps]

Got out today to a private home of a friends. He is going into the rental business and is buying up older homes and it loks like I get to check them all out. My finds for the three hours of detecting were 14 wheaties, a 1898 Indian head, a 1952 Rosie, and a 1901 Barber dime. I also dug a luggage or crate badge that says " Great Northern Railway". It is a bit bent so I will post a pic when and if I can staighten it out. HH all.


Got the pic of the Railway tag posted now. Any ideas what this is? It has " W.W.Wilcox & Co, Chicago" on it. It's about 2 1/2" square.

Good job at straightening out the tag. Looks like it turned out pretty good. Unusual in that it only has the railroad name. That's not my specialty, but I'd like to hear someone else's thoughts that collect railroadiana.
