Our monthly club outing (cdclc.org) was today. We had very nice weather ~ I got a little sun burnt! After the outing we headed downtown to try to find the old stuff! Here's what I dug today:

1952-S Roosevelt dime
26 clad dimes
5 nickels
5 clad quarters
66 memorial cents
Discovery ZONE arcade token
1937 Radio Orphan Annie decoder badge
old tootsie toy train tanker car
Butterfly hair barret

I took a picture of the silver dime with the camera on my cell phone while it was still in the dirt hole!

Hey there nice finds the frost and snow have finally left I have been out 3 times all I have got is 3bucks in clad and lots of pop tops did find a cool old pocket knife. Sunday Shane detected on his own and found his first clad dime. He is really getting into it I'm going to have to buy him his own detecter I'm thinking. I just need a good place to go in this town old places are getting scarce. later kip

Nice finds,

That ROA is a nice relic. I've found alot of relics in my yrs. But have only witnessed one ROA dug by my brother at one of my sites. His is just a round decoder disc. I'd like to find one out there.

OH YEAH! See you Tuesday night!

Here's a picture of the decoder badge before it was in the ground for decades! Not actually the one I found ~ just one like it (glad I cleared that up?!).

Nice badge and tanker car. Always good to see things like that come out of the ground before they are gone forever.
