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

    Very cool finds... amazing there was not silver... with all the rest, there should have been a few silver coins. Cheers, RickO

    Wonderful finds Ron! I agree with you on the Baldwin door plate, that's a definate keeper. I like the cross ring too, very unusual!
