It pains me to post this, but...

The sad truth my friend is that there are some dark, disappointing days.
More of them than I care to admit, and this was one of them.

Laugh at my misfortune if you will.
But I am resolved to turn over a new leaf in 2009.
I will post EVERYTHING that I find.
The disgusting, the vile, the corroded and unrecognizable.
It will be shocking for some to have to journey with me along the dark underbelly of this hobby.
But there will be better days, better finds ahead.

A prime selection of junk.

$2.22 in clad (Just for you Kane!)

Some cheap buttons and a couple tax tokens.

A make up compact and an ear tag.

6 wheat pennies 1914-1958

And the star of our show, a commemorative coin from 1917.

Well, I guess it wasnt a total bust but it was awfully close.
The commemorative coin was the rabbit in the hat.

Nothing wrong with that pile of metal. I found the exact same copper compact last year. 1920s era.

Looks like someone is going to give Plah some competition this year.

Lots of keepers there, Loko! Love the token!

Thanks Nana.
As far as Plebah is concerned (or the artist formerly known as Plebah), He is so far out there he has no worries from me!
I love his posts, but I cannot compete with that kind of insanity.

Hey you're out of hibernation! Nice token. I'm making my return next week weather permitting. I'd go this week, but I'm hoping to get lucky in Vegas instead.

Best of luck to you this year and good luck in Vegas!
Did you ever manage to get on that big lot on 12th street yet?
The one with no trespassing signs every 5 feet?
I called the number on the sign but they said no, maybe this year.

I havn't. I have given up on that lot. I called a while ago and couldn't even get a straight answer on who the owner was. Those big trees sure are tempting though. Maybe when they start building something there we can bug the foreman. Vegas kicked my butt, but I had a blast. Wish it was 75 here. GL. Pray for sun.
