Hit one of my regular haunts which seems to always produce a few keepers, today I did end up with a couple of wheats 1928 and 1936d . The good luck token has on the other side Herman Shields Sinclair agent Medora Illinois. The base of the pontiled bottle tells me this is a really early home site. In the past it has produced seated silvers. The heart is marked sterling on the other side .

Nice finds. I have found a lot of pottery in this one park (one of them with grey-blue leaves almost the same as your top left find) but when I ran my metal detector over the pottery shards, there was no metal in the soil, anything I dug up there were old bottle caps. I later learned that pottery is usually indicative of a house that had once been there and it was demolished, so I was onto something. Unluckily, either the detector (GMT) did not have sufficient depth reach or that it was a cleaned-out spot. Any other suggestions?
 

Nice batch of finds. Looks like someone needed the penny from your token.
 

Nice collection of relics. That little pendant is a sweet find.

That one item looks like a gear shifter or door knob can't really tell
