I know, not that exciting, for some, but it was for me. Hit a local spot where my daughter and I found some jewelry and found about a million bobby pins in the sand. Got sick of that and we went to a local park. Both my daughter and 5 year old son got pretty bored quick. I let them play on the playground equipment and I did some searching. Lots of pull tabs. Found a clad penny and dime in the sand in the pea gravel under the playground equipement. They got pretty worn, so we headed back to the truck. They were already in the truck and yelling at me to hurry up. :) I thought I had better look around an enormous oak 20 feet from the truck. Got that certain Pinging noise that my Ace 250 makes on coins. 1947 Dime. It's in good shape too. Ah, the things I do for 10 cents.
