Not bad for 40 minutes!

[djm of PA]

Went out for about 40 minutes today until my workers showed up at the house. Last week I had gained permission from a neighbor after helping him located underground wires. I told him I'd be back and today I went up the road. Started with a few bullet casings, 31Western rounds. Next was a tag with "Reinle Salmon Co., Store and Office Fixtures-Baltimore MD
Next unknown item labeled Pat March 121878
Pulled out the front end of a spoon and then 10 ft away pulled out the handle, labeled WMA Rogers Nick Pl Silver
Getting tired of digging junk I moved over a few feet and hit three wheats in one hole, 1935, 1942, 1946. A few more feet produced a 1940 wheat, followed by a 1945 and a 1941. Last dig for the day was an undated buffalo nickel, my first. Wish it would have had a date, but oh well, beggers can't be choosers! I can't wait to get back, I haven't even hunted 1/10th of the property there!

Thanks Jeff, interesting. The company was located one block from where the Balto. Ravens stadium is today. Actually right across Ostend St. I think some of the buildings are still standing.
