Thursday afternoon, quick search yields unique items

Hi again everyone,

This evening after work I almost ran home, grabbed my Ace 250, and went out to a favorite park of mine. I had a couple hours until sunset, so I wanted to get the best of the afternoon. I found 34 pennies, 7 dimes, 1 quarter, 1 nickel, and a token and an oval zoo token. The zoo token was found right on the edge of a pond, and the token was from the House on The Rock, about 45min away. Nothing super valuable, but I LOVE finding tokens. They are so much more rare to find in the ground than regular coins. I am going for another one of my special "Saturday runs" this weekend, starting before sunrise. It should be another fun day!!! Thanks for reading, and everyone have a great rest of the week, and a great weekend!!!

I agree that smashed pennies are pretty cool. I get them when I go on vacation and I always save the ones I find. I even have one from Guam that is from a tourist attraction called Jeffs Pirate cove. That is the location of the last known Japanese soldier found hiding from WW2.

I love elongated pennies also. I look for the machines everywhere I go. Pretty cheap souvenir. Here is a web site where you can look up by state for the machines. http://pennycollector.com/

Very cool resource! I always keep a supply of pre 1982 pennies with me for just this reason!
