Hey all,
Found a few a snippets of time to get out over the last couple days. No silver to speak of but I did find some other interesting things.
Yesterday I reworked a 1920s permission I did last fall with the DFX. Didn't miss much but I did find this bell:

I ended up giving it to one of my admirers in the background.
Today I spent a little time in the old ball field I've hit a million times and found the silver quarter at on Friday. Only found one Wheat there so I went wandering and scored a new permission. It's a 1922 house on 3/4 of an acre. I just barely scratched the surface there but managed an old wheat (18S) and a bunch of interesting relics. The age of the relics tell me there's gotta be some old silver around. Unfortunately, I didn't have much time and won't be back there until this summer since it's in Island County, but I talked to the owners and it sounded like it was fine for me to come back at a future date. If you know anything about any of the relics (lock, pocket watch, buckle) please chime in. This is my first pocket watch so that is fun! The lipstick case is from 1927.

Happy hunting everyone!
