It was nice getting out of that heat and humidity on the east coast and returning to the Bay Area of Northern California. I can hunt here without
the sweat pouring out of me.:laughing7:

In today's hunt I dug out a merc in the first 20 minutes, I love it when they come early in the hunt. I continued hunting for 4 more hours and dug
out a second merc on a slope in a San Francisco park. Also dug out 6 wheaties and a military type lapel pin? ...I might need help identifying this?

Nice going on that collar disk. Looks like WWI to my untrained eyes but I am a novice. Good silver too!!
 
As a retired teacher, I love your graphics and illustrations. Thank you. The HMA insignia lapel pin will hopefully be identified by someone here--"___" Military Academy, with the rest not too hard to fill in with a vintage directory of the area. Keep up the good work!
 
that is a WW I collar disc - and collectible
lot of them start around $25 and go up
 
What were the two tokens you found?

Both are junk tokens. One is a bathroom token and the other is a common arcade token. Both are modern token finds, none of them older that the 1980's.
