Etrac keep finding the goods

[Fyrguy86]

I've been diggin with two buddies at the honey hole. We've pulled everything from 1700 coppers, silver, toys, and clad. But every time I go, someone hits the good stuff. I know we all have been over the area several times with stock coils, small coils, and today was the 12x15 SEF one. The keys and coin ball was about 8" deep. There was a 1917 merc and a 1926 quarter in there! Also found a cool Ford knife.

evidently the knife thing is a key fob with key blanks that could be cut. heres an identical one listed on feebay Ford Thunderbird Gold Jack Knife Vintage Crest Key Blank | eBay

Nice finds, awesome day. I agree with jewelerguy the ford knife is a key, I dug one a couple years ago and after soaking it got it to open.
