Continued to hunt my parents' farm in Indiana. No silver this time but I came out with some interesting relics and a couple pieces of jewelry. So far the only silver I've found is two 1926 Mercs on separate digs. That's just enough to whet my appetite--hopefully I'll eventually find more!
Here are pictures of what I found...
3 different brands of shotgun shell heads: Winchester, SR & Co (Sears Roebuck?), and Nitro Club (all within a 100 sq ft area)
old buckle and copper bracelet with southwestern design
brass plate with heart-shaped cutout--the shape resembles the heal of a shoe
reed from an 1800's or early 1900's pump organ (aka harmonium)
New York City "Empire State" souvenir token (may be a token my Mom lost when she was a girl--she went to NYC in 1948 and grew up on the farm)
decorative brass drawer pull
button with "BARTE" stamped on it--possibly a button from clothing but couldn't come up with anything in a google search
