Had some time Sunday to get back to my "IH" park. It never fails me - loaded with IHs and early wheats. It also regularly gives up all sorts of unusual surprises. Found 16 more wheats (incl 1911, 1912, 1917, 1918, 1918D, 1919) and 6 IHs (fattie 1859, 1875, 1891, 1898, 1901, 1902).
Also found was an 1851 LC, a buffalo nickel and 2 Mercs - 1918d & 1935.
The other items were a Marine Corps pin, what looks like part of a pocket knife and a "do-dad" (looks like it might be a drawer-pull or something. it's marked on the back "patd july 19 1871").
The ratios at this park are unusually high for IHs to wheats but lower for silver relative to the amount of early cents. So far, 70 IHs and 110 wheats (62 of them pre-1920). Silver - 1 Barber quarter, 4 Barber dimes, 7 Mercs and a couple silver rings. Thanks for looking.
