One day of decent weather surrounded by frigid temps before and after, so I went out looking around VC again. Got a few keepers including;
a few little buckles and fasteners, a glass bottle stopper, a barrel tap piece, a tiny hinge with the tiny nails still in it, several buttons, a Chinese cash coin and an old beer can.

The cash coin looks to be a Ch'ien-Lung from Emperor Kao Tsung (1736-1795) and from the Board of Revenue mint.

The beer can looks to have been 'shotgunned' with the use of a 'church key' on the bottom. (Those crazy kids!):laughing7:

Sure was nice getting out on a sunny day!
