2 day hunt gets me cool old things and silver #14

Started out yesterday with Martin_V3I, hitting a park north of Mckinney. We found some clad, some scout neckerchief slides, and the usual junk, so we moved on. We went to another park in town that we have hit before, and I'm glad we did. My first Merc finally found me and boy was I happy to see it. We hunted for a while longer and finally called it a day. My son and I got up this morning and grabbed some grub, then headed to a park about 20 miles or so from the house. It is being renovated and has been completely graded. Near where they are digging a trench I find Injun no 3 for the year and my oldest so far. There were locals detecting there also, very nice group of guys. One told me that in the olden days the people would park their wagons out where the baseball field is, when they had the yearly town picnic, so I made my way there. Targets were aplenty, but mostly junk, I did manage my first 3 merry widows tin, stabbed it with the Lesche I did, and a medal from the 1898 Atlanta peace Jubilee. Any info someone can give me on it would be appreciated. I can find pics of them with a single hanger but not the double. Thanks for looking.

Nice finds, love the medal.

Thanks Bag!
