I wanted to detect a little more after finding that soldier. I hit 2 locations this time. I detected by my house and then my uncles house and came up with this and some change.

The old toys are interesting. How old is your house/how long have people lived on the property?

My property used to be a farmfeild in the 19th century. It turned into a park in the 30s I beleive.
The train came from my uncles property. His land was settled in the early 19th century. All the other stuff is coming from my property. I never expected to find this stuff though. I just started metal detecting this yr and decided to practice in my yard. I'm glad I did.

Interesting history there. If you can figure out where the people picnicked or where the main playground was you might hit some coins in that "former park". I'm assuming that your house is the first house on the property. Might want to check if that park had a pavilion too.

Dang I want to do metal detecting!

The spirit is willing, but the back is weak.
