Pill bottle full of coins

[Wheatsweep]

Today while hunting a spot I believed to be hunted out
...as i could see lots of dug holes. I came across a bottle. About two inches down full of coins. At first i thought it was a joke another detectorist had set until i saw the date on the pill bottle. 1989.... I opened the bottle and not one of the pennies was older than 1989...kind of a cool find i thought... The kicker when i got home was that there was a 1946 wheat amongst them. Pretty happy about that...next time mabe ot will be a 1964 bottle, full of quarters.

I taken the time, since I had time today, to send this kink to the IRS. No worries

Must have been a kid that buried it or a detectorist from 1989. Nothing else makes sense. Not enough money for a rainy day.

That's what I love about this hobby/obsession - you just don't know what your going to find !

Maybe left over from a local clubs hunt.
