Well my brother-in-law and I got out today for a little hunting. Found the usual clad and junk, but I picked up this coin of sorts.  It’s about the size of a quarter but has a spread eagle on both sides.  It is the same on both sides. It looks like two tails no head.  Just a wondering if anyone has seen anything like this before?  It was not buried but laying just inside the grass above the root/dirt line of an elementary school.  

The other anomaly I found today was a ring.  There is no hallmark but it has an inside section and an outside section that turns/rotates on the inside section.  I know the inside section is not silver but the outside might be, but with my luck it is probably all steel.  Oh well it’s another ring for the collection.

Remember 9-1-1 and all the Fallen Firefighters and Police Officers. Never forget the price they paid for our Freedom.

God Bless the men and women past, present, and future who serve this country by serving in the military.

Looks like one of them "two faced" flip coins.  I've never seen one with both sides being "tails".  Normally both sides are "heads".

Cool finds.

I'm of no help on the coin, but the ring I think is a stainless steel spinner ring, sometimes referred to as an anxiety, worry ring. I've found a few of them, no silver ones yet.
