Looked like a gold coin for a split second...

[DANGLANGLEY]

I guess there's been so many gold coins found and posted on here lately that I thought for a second that I somehow found one too, lol...(It's a game token). I flipped it out of the wood chips at a school in a nearby town. I know it would be a miracle to find one there but it gave my heart a jump start for a second anyway. I hunted the tot lots and one city park today and found a variety of trinkets and some newer coins. I did find one tot lot that must have been overlooked for many years because I found several coins that had been there quite a few years. I just happened to see it behind the school. I did find a CZ CHINA 925 earring and a pair of earrings about 2 feet apart that must be Avon or something similar. The Hot Wheels car is a 64 Lincoln dated 1999. I found that knife about 4 inches deep in one sand tot lot at the city park. Thanks for looking and have a good one.

Nice finds. Silver in any form is good. Congrats on removing the knife from the sand lot. Looks about like the one I use. You can add it to your selection of digging tools. Good luck and HH!

Ive done the same thing with brass coins in Germany. They made a lot in the 1920s and the first one that poped out of the ground almost gave me a heart a take.

not a gold one but still cool, thank God you found that knife what in the world was it doing there? It didn't have any blood stains or anything on it did it

Hey there, it looked clean the best I could tell but I too had to wonder about it.
