Hey gang,
Figured I might as well post my current findings. Haven't got out much until today. A couple days ago I visited my 1850 place and dug some trash out, eventually there won't be any trash there (if I live long enough) and I might find some old coins. On the way home I hit a boat launch that had a swing set and a slide; found 1 quarter, 1 dime, 2 nickels and 7 pennies. It was a big surprise as I only stopped to look at the lake and figured, what the heck, as long as I'm here. Then I hit a soccer field to practice popping coins out. Just tried those coins that were under 2 inches deep. One quarter, 1 dime, 3 nickels and 9 pennies (and I didn't destroy too much turf)ha ha.
Today I got up and out pretty early as it was supposed to be in the low 90's. Hit 6 tot lots. Found 5 rings (3 not worth much), one .925 silver and the other 10K gold with a C monogram (my daughter's initial!). And, 8.69 in clad composed of 134 pennies, 26 dimes, 10 nickels and 17 quarters. It was HOT!
Met a new friend. His name is Gus and I told him about Treasure Net, hopefully we will be hearing from him. He was digging a plug in the grass while I was in the tot lot. We went to another park tot lot together and he really enjoyed the tot lot more than digging in the grass.
Could someone tell me how to post pictures at the end of each paragraph? I like the way that looks but I have no clue how to do it.
To a certain Italian gentleman who wants to get a Chucky Cheese token...I didn't want to post the one I found today cuz I know how badly you want one. I also attached a picture of the four that I've gotten so far this year...just in case you think I'm showing the same one over and over just to tease you. LOL
Be safe everyone and try to stay cool.
Sorry I can't get any closer pictures of the rings, my camera just won't focus that close and my scanner makes everything the same size.
Forgot to mention for those of you who keep count...todays coins - 187. I didn't show the 160 pennies found in this post because they just don't deserve it.
