Went out Friday Evening for a 2 hour hunt in a local park I have pounded over the past 3 years...It is a lot next to an elementary school, that gets used by the school, and also local kids, so it is constantly being filled with lost coins. Every now and again I get surprised with a Wheat, or a silver...I even found an 1800s Indian head in here...No Silver or Injuns today...I did manage one 1943 (I think) wheat, and 2 whole sets of earrings (one missing the hook)...The large bangle is copper with fake stones all the way around. Have no idea what the LOT 29 thing is??? A Bag seal??? The ground is returning to normal as long as we keep getting rain.
All items found with the Garrett GTI 2500 and white 9.5" Imaging and the 5x10DD coils.

HH,
 

If you found a copper 1943 wheat penny, you definately made a banner find! Those things can bring mega bucks depending on condition as there are only a handfull known to exist. More than likely, it's another year or it's a steel cent which most of us rarely find unless it in with a bunch of other coins in the same hole. That's the only way I've found them as I descriminate out ferrous targets.
 

Looks like you had a good time out there. Nice finds!
 

I still cannot get a good date off the wheat...just too crusted over...

HH,
