Charlie and I hunted a few spots this afternoon and found nothing but clad, except this dollar size coin I found on edge about a 1/4 of the way out of the ground, along with a wheatie.
I found this little bit of info about it. The picture on the far left is what it should look like. Thanks for looking.


As shown, dollar size medal issued for the 1892-1893 Columbian Exposition held in Chicago. Expo marks the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America by Columbus. Brass. Loop professionally attached at top. So-called dollar as listed in book of same name by Hibler & Kappen
 
Nice find kozyman.:clapping: Too bad she wasn't in a little better condition, but a neat find just the same. It's similar to the 1909 Alaska Yukon Exposition token that I found last year. HH.
