Old Ladies Back Yard Paid Off
Yeah, She calls my detector a devil's stick. Yet was willing to let me have a crack at her back yard. This was like a detectorist dream yard, Old, Non trashy, With three kids raised along time ago, Back when they were made to stay and play in the backyard. Only had time to detect for a little while and I need to finish. Right off the bat I found a 1920-D wheat, Then a 1909, Continued on right around the concrete walk to the back steps and found the remain's of an old pocket watch, Like three different piece's. I was amazed with how clean the yard was and had been over the year's. Then I found a cuff-link with an A inscribed in it, Might even be gold??? Then I just had to check by the tornado shelter, Back in the day doppler radar consisted of the sound of a train rumbling in the distance with an errie feeling. That was where I found some kind of old bent pin or broach, She probally wasn't even thinking about it when it was lost. Then around the side of the shelter I found a brass compact with mirrors intact, Then the most ugliest wheatie, Believe it or not, It is a steel penny connect's with a magnet yet very corroded, My first in twenty year's, Then I found some type of ornate hasp??? Then a white gold and yellow gold reverse button with KREMENTZ on it, Then I knew it was about time to leave and I wanted to hit under the clothes line yet opted for a big tree that still had two old rotted step boards nailed on the trunk, Turned out to have been a tree house from the early 1930's. I got a solid hit, And it registered half dollar on the meter, Five in's deep was an old unlisted Oklahoma trade token. Good for $1.00 on purchase of a suit, Geo.W.

It took awhile to clean these up, Aluminum tokens clean up best in baking soda paste, Let them soak. Wishing Yall's good huntin !!!
