A silvery day at the park !

[Trezurehunter]

Hit a small park today, probably only about 2 acres in size. Its small size did not deter my Equinox 800 from sniffing out the 1944 Merc, Crucifix, and an Arcade/Game Room token. Items were washed off at the water pump before the photo op ! Glad the heat finally broke. It was a comfortable 70 degrees. Happy hunting to all.

Very nice! 😁 I found an almost identical crucifix. Does yours have wording on the reverse?

Yes, it says "Sacred Heart Auto League" with a picture of a car, airplane and boat on reverse. It is to protect, while people are traveling.

Nice finds my friend, congrats on the Merc, she looks to be in great shape for a 74 year old lady!
It amazes me that with all of the folks who now detect in the US that you can still find a park that hasn't seen a detector before.

I also found a crucifix at an c1870 one-room school site in 2012, it looks very similar to yours.
The one I found has a silver wash over brass with a psalm on the reverse
