Last week I did a post about some finds at an aunt's house near a land formation known as Big Knob. I have a second aunt in that area, and this morning I helped her take two loads of metal to a scrap yard. As we looked through decades of my uncle's accumulated treasures (license plates, hubcaps, this and that), I stumbled across an empty can of Birch Beer. Empty, that is, of that precious elixir, but half filled with halves! I hoped to find a Walker or Franklin in the bunch but it wasn't to be. I did manage a trio of 40% Kennedys. A little while later, I came across a pineapple can, again half filled with Kennedys. The total take is about $50, which my aunt insisted that I keep. She did manage to get $125 for the scrap we hauled, so it was a good day all around. Better yet, it's been raining for about 12 hours, which should soften up the ground the next time I'm able to attack it!
Never ask halfdime to estimate for you; after counting, the total was $80.50, including the three 40% silvers .
