Tuesday and thursday nights I hunted the Meadows field again. They've graded off the hot area another six inches or so. Got to get all the stuff before it's lost forever. I think they're going to make another parking lot out of it. Most of this stuff was either on top of the ground or not more than 2 inches deep. Good thing because the ground is rock solid at this point and very tough digging.

Here's a nice little merc:

Next is a pretty nice 1928 Buffalo nickel:

A pile of wheaties and 2 memorials:

You'll notice an absence of clad coins. There doesn't seem to be many at all at this spot. I'm not complaining.

What's so great about the spot is all the neat exumomia items that have been found there. Here's one, a Knights of Columbus tag:

Another item is an old Green River Whiskey Token:

The rest of the stuff (a little telephone key chain tag, a laundry token, a little heart medal, a big button, a marble and a mangled watch band):

Nice merc, love the buffalo, wheats are ok too!

Keep @ it and HH!!
 
Nice selection of recoveries ! I;d be working it even at night.Looks like it will be well worth extra efforts.HH...Panz
 
I think your KofC tag is actually an elongated cent. I just found a 1939 World's Fair one last weekend.
 
Nice finds. That Merc is sweet!
