Hit a bean field here in Kansas a couple times and came up with a couple buttons. One I believe is a WW1 era based on my research and the time the land was occupied. I went to a place in town and found two silvers on the first day! One was a 1914 Barber dime, and the other is a Standing Liberty quarter. The date is worn off so not sure of the actual date but my research on this has found that in 1917 there were some changes; one being that stars was added to the reverse under the eagle which I can make out. In 1925 a depression was made on the pedestal on which Liberty stands and that bears the date. On mine it does not appear the pedestal is recessed so I am assuming the date did wear off. To me anyway that puts the coin between 1917 and 1925. There is quite a bit of black residue caked all over it so probably won't be able to find out much more. On my second trip I came up with three Wheats that coincidentally where 1950, 1951, and 1953. (all D's).
