I went to an old city park to meet up with McCDigg. We hunted for about 4 hours. I found a few wheats that were in pretty bad shape. The earliest one was 191?, I di get a nice 70 vdi on my AT Pro, thinking it was another penny imagine my surprise when a Mercury dime was at the bottom of my plug.
I went back this morning to try my luck again in a different area in the park. Dug lot of trash and some clad before I got a nice 80-81 at 9" down Dug my plug and this was staring back at me.
About a foot away I got a 50-53 signal at 7" down, thinking nickel I was surprised when I saw the buffalo after I wiped the dirt away.
I continued hunting and I got a 48-53 at 8" down, I flipped the plug and a button was at the bottom. Thinking modern I just put it in my pouch. It wasn't till I got home that saw that it looked rather aged. While I was lightly cleaning it the backing disintegrated in my hand. Hopefully some can help me identify the button.
All comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for viewing. Hope all your plugs have treasure at the bottom.
