Silver and a 1924 Bronze Political Pin

[DPBOB]

The Metal Detecting Gods were looking out for me today. I had the day off today. It's been raining for 2 days now. I started late morning in the rain ( drizzle ) after 15 minutes the clouds opened up to see the sun. Thank You.....

I went back to where I dug my 1901-O XF Barber Quarter. Only to find a few wheaties and a lot of clad and the Bronze Pin .
Then went to an older park to see how this park might be. First few swings I pulled a wheatie up. Looked promising.
After about a 1/2 hour I pulled up the 1946 Dime #147 silver and a 1924 penny 10 minutes later the 1943S Silver War Nickel saw the light of day making it # 148.

Not much after that but some change.

The Bronze Pin has the bust of ROBERT M. LaFOLLETTE AND BURTON K. WHEELER C24 on it.
The pin is a 1924 Presidential Political Pin..

The QUEST FOR 150 SILVER COINS for the year is right around the corner....

That campaign pin must be worth some good money. I collect campaign buttons, but I've nothing that old. Very cool find. The silver and wheats aren't bad either. LOL

Very nice finds and I agree with Treasuretales, that campaign pin could be a very valuable collectors item, I've never heard of either one of them, but that doesn;t mean its not valuable...maybe someone on here can come back to you with a guestimate on tis value...maybe PBK will know?

That's it, just $9.00!!!! Bummer, if I saw that pin in a store I'd snatch it up for $10.00! LOL Seriously, that puppy looks a whole lot more exciting to me than just 9 bucks.
