A "Fein" hunt
I went to two different sites this weekend and picked up a few finds.
The first site was a Spanish/American War Camp turned golf course and now fast becoming an apartment complex.
I honestly think that every time a golf ball was hit a pop top was thrown to the ground. I could stand in one spot and find 20 of the little rascals!
Anyway, I did manage to pull two silver coins out before darkness set in. One is a 1944 quarter and the other a 1919s dime with a severe head wound. While they are not in the greatest shape they will go into my coin books as I didn't have either one.
I hunted that site Friday and went back to my field in search of my Confederate button Saturday morning.
Still no luck on that but I did find a few more civilian buttons and one button back. The checkerboard design button had a backmark on it and after some cleaning I was able to make out "Extra Fein". It is of German origin and dates to the mid 1800s
Well, I think I have rambled on about this enough so I'll not take up any more of your time.
Good Providence to all.
