Metal Detecting - Silverless Saturday (Again)

Hello everyone,
Top of the morning to you!


Yesterday I did a 3 hour metal detecting hunt at Corlears Hook Park. This is the area in the Lower East Side where the word Hooker originated. I'm not going to explain, just think about it.

No silver on this hunt either.
So in the tradition of @SensibleSal66 I have named this thread Silverless Saturday

I think I hunted it out after several years. This was the park that helped me reach my record of 116 US Silver Coins in a year.

Yesterday's finds..

US Wheat Cents - 14


Miscellaneous Metals


Compact Case Top


Old Metal Toy Plane


2 Foreign Coins


Everything



13 Different Keys - A new record!

Okay, ED. Yup. Environmental damage.
I like the "King Tut" medal. Maybe it's ancient?

 

It’s always fun to check your finds. You never let us down

 

Not all the wealth is in silver. Looks like a pretty good haul to me. Congrats!

 

Could the little airplane be a prewar Cracker Jack toy?

 

Wow.. yes it could be. I just googled..

 

Your in new York so I'm surprised you haven't found any civil war relics or at least if you did it has been awhile.

 

A few years ago at Fort Greene Park Brooklyn
US Marine Corps Civil war button..

 

Any musket balls?.

 

Great finds Paddy! @Tall Paul is correct about the airplane being a Cracker Jack toy, early to mid forties I believe. The Egyptian piece looks like a pendant or from a keychain. Sorry the lower left corner is chipped off. Akk lol ways nice to get outdoors and do something you love doing.

 

These..

 

The second I saw that little plane I thought early Cracker Jack…. That is very very cool.

 

I would clean that button up I like it
