Default A major disappointment

I was informed today that the spot I found the 1901 half dollar is in the forest preserve and M D ing is not allowed. Oh well---I hunted a spot where a house used to be and found these emblems.
The one on the left is a mans head wearing a helmet with wings on it.
Pappy do you know about how old these are? TIA

From the land of the Bluenose.....well at least you got to hunt it at least once. Other spots and other things to be found. Best of the season!
