I'm more pleased with the fact that I can still detect in the middle of January than I am with these finds...but I like the toy gun so I'll call it a success!

I suspect that there are very few days left...ground is frozen down about 3 inches now and I've got bruises on the bottoms of my feet from jumping on the shovel!

That is actually a pretty cool find. Crescent toy company went out of business in 1980 and a lot of their toys are collectibles today. Congrats.

If everything had to be super old to be good I'd find another hobby. Lol Love finding old toy guns. This one actually held up pretty good.
