I hit a park yesterday that has given up some colonial buttons and early silver over the years. I know that there was a documented Revolutionary War Battle that took place in this park. I was on a search for some Silver but it just wasn't to be. When I got home, I cleaned up my finds so I could post a few pictures. While cleaning a piece that seemed to be encased in a tar like substance, I noticed a glint of gold. I soaked it in lemon juice and slowly but surely, I was able to expose the remains of a gold cufflink. There are no hallmarks or karat stamps, but this bad boy is gold. Now the question is, how old is it?
Among the 76 coin total, I managed 11 deep wheat pennies. I never get tired of digging wheat. One of the wheat pennies is a 1930s and it is in good shape, After cleaning it, I put it in a coin folder. The s mint mark isn't all that common in the New York area.
