Hello everyone. Decided to get out for a day of enjoyment after yesterdays rain. It's amazing how rain affects the soil and you can find things that you previously overlooked, as was todays hunt. This site has produced a few silver coins and a bunch of Wheaties, 1910 being the oldest. At least 2 dozen and counting. No silver today though. I've gotten good with the owner as he was a Marine and so was I so for me it makes it easier to get my foot in the door. He is also single and the house was given to him by his parents.... Lucky him.

? What is that? Couldn't find it on the internet, and the best part, one of my uncles good luck token.

Smith is even spelled wrong which would be typical for a 10 year old in the early 1940's. I have to let my father look at it. He is the oldest and might recognize it.Thanks for looking and have a safe, happy weekend Ron Smith
