USN Pin and some silver dimes

[SugarSand]

I hit a small (50' x 133') lot with a house built in 1920 for 2 hours today. Best finds were these two dimes and what appears to be a US Navy pin, but I can't find anything about it searching the Internet. The two pieces were in the same hole but I think they are suppose to be together like I set them in the second pic? Anyone know?

Thanks for the nice replies everyone!? The landowner is going to ask her neighbors too, so maybe if I go back again I will have three times the land to hunt.? I also found a couple of Matchbox cars, and I think one is from the sixties? Mine is too dirty and smashed to show, but here is the identical thing on Ebay.? I also posted this because the seller seems to have a good MD spot if you are near LaPorte, TX and can get permission...? ? Oh wait, looks like the property is in Maine, perhaps even better...
