That is a great half. I would love to water hunt more, but I struggle with the recovery process. You certainly have it nailed down based on that haul. Congrats!

I use a weighted belt with 30lbs on it so when I'm in water deeper then my waist when I go under with my mask on it holds me right in the spot and I don't have to try to fight the current as much today i was in water from knee deep to neck deep.
 

Went for a water hunt in a fishing hole today(hunted a total of 5 hrs)and found a lot of sinkers and a few modern coins and one smooth large cent the only thing i can read on it is the words One Cent and the best find of the day was the 1906 barber half dollar.
Love that Barber. Great job

What are the round pieces that look like sheriff's badges ?
 

Is that an Annie Oakley shot coin I see?

Awesome!!! Congrats!!!
 

Very nice assortment of goodies for your hard work. Going underwater in a fishing hole is certainly a different animal than doing the same in an ocean or a lake--I would be a bit creeped out at what might be in the murky water.
I remember very well the pictured tokens that one would get from a machine in an amusement park penny arcade--you could put a name or date on it by positioning the dial and pulling down on a large handle which would stamp one character at a time into the soft metal disk.
