Had a awesome day today! Received permission to hunt the grounds of a old church built in 1900. What a day!
Found 5 mercury dimes! 1917-S, 36-P, 39-S, 40-P, and 45-S. Also got 2 rosies 1950-S, and 1964-D. The V nickel
is a 1902! Also dug up 11 wheat pennies, silver earring, and about 75 coins! This area must be virgin territory!
Lots of trash to deal with. Pull tabs and rusty iron is everywhere, so you got to work it slow! I will return next
weekend!

Awesome saves. Lotsa silver. Getting harder to come by.

M60A1s? Where were these?

You got that right! It's a M60A1 main battle tank at Fort Knox Kentucky when I was in AIT. The unit was Bravo 2-1. Pic taken in September of 1975. I spent four years in that 63 ton hunk of steel.

A/3-1 1983. M60 A1/3 We had a mix. Went to Germany and was on M60A1s and transitioned to A3s. Later, as the wall came down we transitioned to M1IP.
 

nice score....thats worth hitting a few times :icon_thumleft:
 

What a hunt! I love that watch dial. It looks to be maybe 1920/30's?

Also, thanks for your service.
 

Excellent finds from the Bay area. You had a great day in anyone's book :notworthy:
