Default musketball in the park?

Went to a park I have detected in the past, had a lot of work ridding it of all the scraps and trash, but in the end it payed off. Today I went back, and found a musketball, and a St. Christopher protect me medalion, made of sterling silver. I also found 9 quarters, another ring, 7 dimes,1 nickel, and 19 pennies, so not bad. Again, the woodchip play area was picked clean, these hit and run detectorists just don't know what they are missing in the ground! They never dig anywhere but the woodchips.

So far I've found one very old license plate, a lot of nails, some funky green pennies and other misc. change.. but who's counting? I'm just here to have fun, giggle, and make friends along the way!
