5 silver day :bouncy:

[detecterx]

Went out with henry to a local school yard @ 650 a.m. just finished. Got two 1917 mercs a 1919 and a 1942. Also found a metal of some sort, rather heavy marked sterling on the back. As usual the wheats and clad. Clad photo coming up when I get home. All using iron mask 18 semi auto 32 and the rest like Bryces program. Using the 6x8" sef. Woo hoo!

HH,

Tom

what does it say on the front of your medal. it looks military, maybe a sharpshooter medal.

 

[detecterx]

Its pretty much the same as the back, just has a raised border about 1/8" all around. I didn't think marksmen or sharp shooter would be silver. Typically they are pewter... so I am not sure, might put it in the whatzit.

Clad picture added, quarters, dimes, pennies.

HH,

Tom

Research, hard work, diligence, patience. As most will attest, some of the best finds come from hunted out areas. I go out and purposefully look for the nastiest trash infested places, where most detectorist run. And I am in paradise. Clean sites scare me!

Fantastic job on the Mercs!
That appears to be a Marksman's Pin. (Looks like backside pictured) Neat find!

Detec It is a sharpshooter badge the older ones were made out of silver, my freind has found 2 and I have seen them at yard sales once in a while and at estate sales HH

 

[Bobby Moyers]

They are made out of silver.(older) My buddy just found one yesterday in an old field. Should be an iron cross and his has a hanger that reads riffle.
