Well I decided to go down in my yard today metal detecting. It was cold, windy and even snowing, but I decided to give it a shot. I've been meaning to take my 6in excellerator coil around the yard. There is a 20 yard long electrical line that runs from the house to the garage and my 12in coil has always gone nuts through there so I've always skipped it. Tonight I decided to give it a shot. I ran pag 2 and ac 65. Still getting a little feedback from the lines. Might try lower next time. Here are my findings from a 20yd by 10 yard strip.

1917D merc
1941D washington
1945D wheatie
1956D wheatie
1953 canadian
The last item I always thought was a button but lately someone told me it was a dress weight to hold the bottom of a girls dress from blowing up. Can anyone confirm?

The 1956D wheatie I found in the same hole as the 1953 canadian and the 1945D wheatie and 1941D washington I found about 3 inches apart.

I've heard both for your lead find there, both dress/curtain weight or button. Cool stuff !!
 
I was also told weight, "hem weight"
