Indian Summer

Today was 40 degrees and tomorrow will be 45, so plenty of hunting around here.
I went solo to a 100+ year old park which is under construction.
There were lots of relics and bottles to be had.
I even took a break to eat some lunch.

Here is a link to the celebration which took place in Milwaukee in August of 1937 (watch fob)

One of my favorite days detecting this fall

Matt, nice. Always a good day when your able to save a little bit of history. Cool fob. HH Mark

So can you read Matt the organization that is having the annual convention. I ask this as I dug the 1938 convention fob today. It has the same symbols as yours but took place in Ashland. Neat find for sure. Trapper

Was able to research them both and they are American Legion Fobs. Trapper

Gotta love an enjoyable day outdoors! Especially when you're finding cool stuff! The commemorative fob is an outstanding find!

It appears to be an 1860-1890 Italian coin
