Hello All. I decided not to post any finds till I found a piece of silver...well finally I found silver, nothing great just a '52 Rosie but dug many good non-silver finds along the way.

Got the normal ammo, toys, keys, Wheaties etc along with a few Whatzits like a 1-3/8 inch diameter brass ball and knob that says A to Z. Also scored a modern collectors buckle, a risque token (courtesy of Btoots, thanks Digger Mike) and a real nice good luck token.

Dug 5 or so sites for these finds, but most came from one two acre farm location which continues to produce hunt after hunt.

Thanks for the view and Good Luck out there.

The relics are sure interesting! I like the buckle. I have been putting in my time also hoping for an old coin but the relics sure keep me going! There is always something around the corner, if you can find the time!

I second that tank pin being a cool one. I wonder if it's an official military pin? I'll bet it was a hot dirty job "working" (or fighting) in one of those early tanks. Gary

Wow! Plenty of targets to keep you busy. A little bit of everything...nice going!

Yes that pin is was a welcome find...dug it at an old VFW hall site...turned out to be "relic of the day".

Thanks for the replies and Good Luck out there. C9

Holy smokes, you found a ton of non silver goodies. I bet a bunch of those targets sounded like “this one has to
be a silver dime”. Love the tokens! Congrats
