1946 & 1947 Dimes ~ 1920 & 1921 Wheats ~ 1940 nickel ~ 41 pulltabs!!

I went detecting all day today ~ I went to some parks & schools ~ I ended finding 20 clad quarters, 32 clad dimes, 13 nickels, 78 memorial cents, LTD bus token, 1968 Canadian nickel, 1946 & 1947 Silver Roosevelt dimes, 1920 1921-S & 1941-D Wheat cents, 1940-S Jefferson nickel, two keys, solid brass rabbit figure, pad lock, 41 pull tabs, and a military pin.

My goal was to find a gold ring at the parks ~ I ended up with 41 pull tabs and no gold ring! DANG IT!!!

One weird thing today was the older "P" mint coins I found ~ here in the west we usually find "S" or "D" mint coins, not "P" mint. Both the silver dimes are "P" mints, and the 1920 Wheat is a "P" mint. KINDA COOL!!

The rabbit figure I assume is solid brass or copper/bronze. Heavy little guy ~ I bet it weights more than one ounce.

Pull tabs are worth it with finds like that.
