These are some finds from the site. A deputy constable star badge,1909 s Indian head, pocket watch and plate, and other cool relics I'm not sure about. Dose anyone out there have a good process to clean rare Indian head penny's that will not further damage the coin? Thanx and happy hunting.

Great grouping of finds, well done on the badge and the IH. What's the silver item between the star and the fob?

Not sure but it's plated copper. It looks like a horse race with a guy in a clock tower.. It has a small hole in it. It's definitely hand mad. Maybe with some kind of press to indent the picture.

Pretty cool assortment of finds. On older copper coins, I use a wooden toothpick or matchstick with cotton swabs and olive oil. If it is a rare date. You might want to have a coin dealer arrange to have it cleaned, graded, and encapsulated by PCGS. The 1909s IHP is a key date.

If that 1909 s has any kind of detail then $$$

Fantastic finds, DirtFisher707! That badge is a killer, and as you probably found it in northern California (where I am also from) it was most likely made by either the Ed Jones Company out of Oakland, or the Irvine & Jachens Company out of San Fransisco. Is there a hallmark or pin/catch still on the reverse? I would enjoy more pix of the badge! Happy Hunting, Sub
