Hit a street and sidewalk tear out earlier, an '88 nickel and a zincoln...BOO. Hit my tot lot #1. Pulled the butterfly ring first, next interesting this is this nickel punched out into a cross. Best thing for me though was a 9 coin spill, 2 Q's, 4 D's, and 3 N's. image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

Nice bling! Maybe someone is interested in fashioning jewelry and personalized the cross.

I have found a couple of those junk enameled flower rings. Bling is bling still pretty!

That nickel turned into a cross took some effort for sure. Some tot lots can produce awesome finds sometimes.

Great finds. Tot lots are fertile hunting grounds. The artist-cut nickle is a keeper, much labor went into fashioning it into a pocket token. (I say that as I don't see remnants of a chain link on the top.) Congrats. Sub 8-)
