my Illinois vacation hunt continues to produce

[Yucon Cornelius]

After a week or so not hunting, i descided to hunt in the yard between rain sessions. i picked up a strong $.50 signal @ 4 inches on my BH202 in 3in tall grass. i barely broke ground n hit somthing hard. at bout an inch deep i found this beauty, now if i can find the other 1/2 n the wheels.
my friend guessed it to be 1935-39. anyone have insight on this subject?

Looks to be from the 30's. It looks really old!

Wow! That's one hard working farmer. He's still driving!

Hard to tell much from the pic, but it looks like a great find to me!! Congrats!
