Go Minelabbing Weekend

I took a road trip with my brothers this weekend - to parts unknown. We started at Indiana Dunes State Park on Saturday morning for the Go Minlabbing event (where I won an X Terra 305). Met up with Gatekeeper and Carver, along with some of the detectorists from around the Chicago area - then when the event was over we hit the road for a few hours and hunted some small towns and cities. We hunted HARD for everything we found. I ended up with 7 wheats, an old pocket watch, what looks like a scribe or something, an aluminum good luck pendant and 2 Indians (1899 and 1900) along with an 1897 Barber dime that were within a few feet of one another and probably lost by the same person. My brother Tim found a 1906 Injun, a smooth SLQ and a very nice 1892-O Barber quarter. Fun trip with my bros, but that drive home was a bear!
 
That aluminum Good Luck charm was probably a give away at a fair or Circus during the 1950s and 1960's. We are hunting an area that had a Circus set up during that time peroid and have found many of those charms, exactly like that one.
 
Nice looking IH pennies. Cleaned up well.
 
It appears you got a good days haul. Keep it up. :thumbup: I live in SC and have found one of those four leaf clovers. I'm not sure it was a token though.
