What are the odds two from the same field one year 13 days apart.

[worldtalker]

The first Love token found was 5/10/14,today was the SECOND one within 300 feet of the first,I couldn't believe it.What was awesome too the next hit was an 1855 Seated,third one from here in
37 days.

Last years...





Today...




The Seated...





Ritchie finally started harrowing..well,His 11 year old Boy did. That Boy really knows how to drive that tractor,Ritchie told me someone ratted Him out to Labor Board,He said"screw em,I'm going to let Him work and drive all He wants".




Why won't people mind their own business!



Ritchie and His Daughters planting the crops...



Family working together to make a living,what's wrong with that??


GOD Bless

That's great. I would love to find a love...token that is! Those tokens are such a personal thing made long ago, it just doesn't get any better than that. Congrats on not one but two. So special. The seated ain't bad, either.

We started driving tractors and pickups on the farm soon as we were big enough and mature enough. Had nothing to do with age. That's why people can't drive know. Don't start to learn till they get there permit. Nice finds. Congrats

Good score on the love token and seated....wtg.

I did farm work at a very early age and it didn't kill me if anything it helps build character.

Those love tokens are incredible finds bud.
As for the work....my grandparents had a 500 acre farm that I basically spent every day at. I would stand in the seat of the huge hay truck and steer up and down the fields as the adults loaded the hay on. Milking cows and collecting sap to boil down. It was an amazing way to grow up. Every bit of food I ate came from that farm. They even made their own butter and ice cream. I miss that simple life where family meant everything and you spent all of your time with the ones you loved

Ahab,

Life back them was simple,hard but SIMPLE,today life is hard but NOT so simple!

I'm so Thankful I grew up when I did.I did the farm chores too.

Those are really cool! Nice seated congrats!

 

[treblehunter]

Very cool finds, I love the pix and story about the kid working along with your story of great finds!

Congrats on the Love Token, getting two from the same site is a rarity I think. The engraved ones made from the silver coinage have are very classy.

Having the kids working chores, driving the tractor and doing things together making food is a class act. I can see the reporter to the LB would rather see the kids sitting in front of the video screen than having values installed in their upbringing.
