Default Area CW Soldiers camped

Went back and hunted an area where I have been told CW soldiers may have camped. An elderly friend and the owner said they had detected the area years back and never found anything. This area is now occupied by rent mobile homes. Just my luck, was sure hoping when I located it's whereabout's that it would have been somewhere off to it's self with no occupation since that time period. Now all I can do is dig and hope someone can tell me if any of it is from that time period?

Have added all finds found from this area in 2 trips of detecting. Any comments on finds are welcome!

The token on the end is a modern chuck e cheese play token with a date of 1982 on it. We use to have a chucky cheese pizza place here at that time but not any more. First token I have found in awhile, and I just love those old cap guns think this one is probably from the 50's to 70's maybe.

Default Hi Pat

In looking a pic #2, I think you have two weights for a scale. The one on the left is marked 100g.......Scale weights is all I can think of. I too like the pistol. Nice finds....congrats!!
