Neckerchief and a 43 Washington

[deershed]

Did a short hunt at our church yard where we found all neckerchiefs. We've hit it pretty hard but, you never know.
Found another neckerchief and some clad. One quarter was a 65 and another was a 66, also got a 67 dime.
In the back part of the yard they bulldozed the area down to bare dirt. I found a Rosie in that area my first hunt so I headed back there.
My first hit was 85-86 and shallow, picked it up with the pin pointer just below the surface. Flipped a small plug and had a 1943 Washington laying in the hole.
Only found another couple older wheats, a 1912 and a 1918. I'd like to hit that back part of the yard another day, didn't spend a lot of time there today.

So is that oval thing in the right corner a neckerchief? I've found a few of those over the years but never knew what they were. Were they used to hold kerchiefs and about what dates?

Yes it's a neckerchief, couldn't tell you when they were first used but, they're still being used today.
