Went to a park (yesterday) near by that was aquired by the City in the late 30's. I've hunted Jewelry there before and chanced upon a buffalo nickle spill, so I knew old coins still were present. Today started out as Jewelry hunting up near the open areas/water features, but I eventually decided to hunt a spring cellar hole in the wooded part of the park. Immediately around the cellar was clean and so I worked my way out following the lay of the land and what I suspected was a wide trail now abandoned.
Modern trash was very minimal.
The first coin found was a 1924 Canadian Penny. 30 yards down the "trail" wheats began popping out of the ground left and right. Followed by an Indian Head Penny 1902. Followed by more toasted pennies. Not one silver and not one nickel...go figure. Ran out of time and only hit this area for 40 minutes before I had to leave. Here is the take.
Any ideas on the bell? Looks similar to a beehive and it has a bit of broken plastic at the top...so that seems strange.
The "knife handle" item seems to be pewter of something. Very heavy.
The Mickey Mouse pocket watch is my first complete unit. Genuine China movement! LOL!
And that is the smallest Zippo I've ever found!
Will be headed back today with many hours to spare! There must be some buffalo nickles there!
Thanks for peeking.
