Default Last 5 or so hunts

I have found plenty o'wheaties on the last several hunts but no silver.
Most of the wheats are from the 30's, 40's and 50's. There is one Canada cent from 1947. I did add in the 1922 D cent that I found a while back at the same site. The old wheat to merc ratio is not holding true for this site. I believe the item on top is a part of a horse team rigging. A type of handle to put it over the horses neck maybe? The three items on the right are valve stem covers that say Chevrolet on them with a patent date of July 1?, 1915. I also threw in a button and a shotgun shell head. Thanks for looking.

Nice finds!
That handle thinggy actually is part of the pulling (working) horses harness.
Very cool

Man, that's a lot of wheat at one site with no silver...I'm hanging right there with you, but my string is over 4 sites..17 wheaties since the last Merc ( actually it was silver back to back, so I guess maybe it does even out )...I can feel soome silver on the horizon.. good luck, Roadrunner_426

1919 isn't too bad for your oldest wheat. 1909 wheats are still eluding me. 1910 is my oldest so far. My buddy has found two 1909's though
