My crazy day at a new sand lot in Colorado

[Pentico]

Hey hey everyone,
This has to be my most crazy day of digging.
I have really tried to get out of the house for some exercise every day.
This morning my body said let's sleep in, my mind said let's go MDing!
Glad my mind won the battle this morning because I had a blast in the short time I had.
Found a new park not to far from the house.
Check out the pictures below.
My first hit was a very strong magnet that sticks like glue to metal.
Then the fun started finding all the foreign coins, one right after the other.
11 coins in about a 20 square foot area.
I have no idea where they are from, maybe you good folks could help with that part.
The large one is 1939 - One Penny Georgivs vi D:BR:MN:REX F:IMP
The next large on 1981 TUPAC AMARU on the front. Banco Central De Reserva on the back
The next one has 10 and looks like Chinese
The next on 1964 have cent Siera Leone

Dang you know what I am going to try to scan them.

Cool Ring from India.
A RTD bus token.
A hot Wheels car.
And more can and bottle tops.
And a key ring.

Man oh man do I like this hobby.

Thanks for all you guys helping me learn the hobby.

the 4 similar coins that say "franco" on them are spanish --- the asian one thats says 10 is either a 10 won korean coin or 10 yen japanese -- the one with the hole is either 50 won or yen -- you have a coin from peru there too --- plus the serria leone african coin --- a very odd mix indeed --- Ivan

I go through that same battle in my mind every morning, usually detecting wins out. Way to go on some neat finds.
