She's almost 70, she's walkin', and she's beautiful...silver find today

Got out the past couple of days..it's been beautiful out there :icon_sunny:

Found some more old coins , including a 1950 silver "Roosie" , a 1942 Walking Liberty., and some more "wheaties".

I found this half dollar in almost the same spot that I had found the previous one ( after Hurricane Irene). After scooping up dimes and pennies, this coin looked HUGE in the scoop! :o

Thinking of maybe opening up a Fishing Lure store...these things sure are plentiful at the beaches that I hunt.

Here's pics

Thanks for looking

Lorraine
