I was down near the airport today and on my way back through Baltimore I stopped by Wyman Park for a short hunt.
First find was a surface clad quarter, then a partial Mervin Jiffy hair clip, another clad quarter, a memorial, and a brass thimble followed in order. Then things got interesting. This place has yielded me about a hundred wheats and I hoped to get just one today and ... Bingo! a 1917 wheat. Making my way back to the truck I was detecting the edge of the footpath and got a 70s VDI shallow, large target. ?soda can I thought, but what came out was a first for me. I thought it may be part to a padlock, like a face plate, but then it became apparent that I was looking at a ladies boot plate. It has the size 2 and a half in raised numerals on the inside. Thanks to Treasurenet I understand that this is mid to late 1800s.
Thanks for checking out my pics.
Happy hunting, everyone.
