Chicago Ron · Oct 28, 2007

Spent 3 days tecting 2 ball field after they put in new drainage system.
Not much silver I think the field was cherry picked years ago as there were lots of wheats but only 1 silver coin.

The take!

29 quarters
34 dimes 1- 1909 barber
33 nickles 2- buff 15d, 19, 1- V 1911
110 pennies + 20 wheats including 1910, 1913d
2 Indians 1898, 1901
1 14K cross ring
1 14K JC/Madonna medallion
1 1950 campaign badge He lost!
1 very cool Baldwin door lock plate.
1 goetz phone token
3 game tokens

Fantastic finds. Ballfields are great arn't they. Especially the older ones...

I like the cross ring. Also congrats on the Chinese cash coin. We've been seeing some of those lately. Most likely the oldest coin of the bunch!
