Abandoned Park Hunt

[Bayou Joe]

My son and I hit an old abandoned park that I spotted one day while kayaking. It was pretty dry other than pull tabs and two Lincolns, guess its already been hit hard. So we took to the water and found a few more things.

Pull Tabs
1 Fishing sinker
2 Lincolns (Found on Land)
1 .22 casing
1 Namco Amusement Token 1991
1 EP Industries P-23 Pin Says "All Ecompassing" on Front
1 really rough unknown coin

Searched for info on the EP Industries P-23 Pin with no luck. If anyone has or can find info on this pin, I would appreciate the info.

The mystery coin looks to be the size of a clad dime but I don't know. Great finds

I may be way off here but is it possibly related to the Piaggio? Italy first flown 1935 WW2? If you go on Facebook to Rathbone Museum's page he is an expert on WW2 and knows tons about military pins.

Thanks everyone, and after re reading my post saying we took to the water. The old park is right on a creek, so we searched one small area that we could wade into. Tomorrow we plan to take kayak down this creek and search different areas. This creek was used for logging in the 1800 and early 1900's floating logs from the mills to the main river.

IMO that material is definitely copper and it's seen a lot of years! I'd guess old Indian Head. Then again I dug up a coin that looked like that and it turned out to be a penny-sized Civil War era token. Look really close for any distinguishing features.
