Assorted finds

[kschae4]

Folks, the '43 Wash qtr was found by researching historicaerials.com. I used the swipe function to split the screen into the years of 1963 and 1979 (this year consistently has better picture quality), and was able to see where a home had stood before being razed for construction of a mall. The coin was on the border of the current parking lot under 8 inches of graded soil.
Today finds included a brass buckle, sounded sweet at 38-39 at least 6 inches of depth. In addition, a military button (eagle & full loop on back) a few sad wheaties '46,
'47, '53, '58, 2 dog/vet tags and an unknown costume jewelry and I'm guessing a broken latch. Thanks for viewing.

Hey Ken, nice mix of finds there. Way to do your research while the weather was uncooperative. Sure has been paying off. Any idea on the age of the button? Thanks for the pix and numbers.
Glad to see you getting out!
HH,
Bunker

Thanks, Bunky. Not sure of button age, so will need to check out U S Army button sites, as Ft Monmouth is in the vicinity. I could've taken a better pic of the back, that's for sure.
