Finds that I've made the last 2 hunts in a ballpark

I made some decent finds in this old ballpark before too, it's been hammered by detectorists for years but there's still some deep stuff there.

These are what I found the day before yesterday, the ring is 14K, it has a halmark but no karat mark, the first thing I did when I got home was get out the gold tester. The dime was very deep and was blacker than the ace of spades so I did about a 15 second electrolysis bath on it and a little baking soda and clean up good

This is what I found yesterday. The Indian was way deep and I was really surprise of the condition it was in cause the soil is black dirt they use to plant celery in but for some odd reason this coin held up great.

Great looking finds for an old ballpark that been hammered! :icon_thumright:
I love the patina on the 1892 IH. This "key" looking item is an interesting object? :icon_scratch:

That IH is one of the nicest I've seen pulled out of the ground.

I'm not sure, but I believe the key was for gas. Used to turn the gas lights off and on. (Maybe?)

Good finds in any case!! HH
