Getting out, walking, finding odd stuff, lots of clad. Feels like I've come "home".

This huge black thing is a puzzle to me. Its, non-magnetic, rings up at 40 on the AT, the color is black right thru. When I got the signal, I thought it was just a bit of foil or slaw. When I saw it in the hole I was shocked this huge piece of flotsam didn't blow my headphones off! Instead, it was a rather quiet signal, no bigger than a bottle cap! :dontknow:

This piece is iron. I thought just a knockout. But its looks like a coin to me. I do see a character or two but its too rusted.

Two interesting coins.

I think Frogger is getting tired of being a frog. ;)

Fishy has picked a winner in my book. (Sterling)

I figure this piece must be shinier. He seems happy. (925)

Anyhoo...all in all, a fairly successful walk, I think.

Thanks for taking a moment to peek!

Stay safe!

Nice!
The iron coin could have been a steel cent minted in 1943. At least most likely.
The 2 interesting coins look Irish btw.

Great hunt, WHADI!

I was going to say battery cell, also. I found one before and that's what I was told.

I can see where it's probably a carbon rod. I've just never seen one this solid nor this big!

Thanks!

Thanks!
Yeah, its been a long time coming. Fortunately, this permission has just about a little of everything! And...it's huge so I can be a long ways from *anybody*!

Just can't figure why I can't find a wheat cent. :dontknow:

Plenty old enough! I have found a barber dime, a walker, a large cent, an Indian....but no Wheaties. Weird!
