All Treasure Hunting
Walked an old road and these are the finds good enough for display. Not shown is all the junk I found too! The side of a road is a real trash dump! I have to research the GE plaque and the aluminum token, but, I cleaned up the "gold filled" pendant and the abused Franklin half. It's been a while since I found one of those. They were only made for 16 years, so, not a common find in my area. I find many times more walking halves and Kennedy's than I do Franks. The ammo was all dated from 1941 to 1953. The pocket watch doesn't have any visible I.D. markings on it. Just plated junk, but, an interesting find regardless. A couple of the keys were fairly old too. What do you figure the "W" one is? Willys maybe? $5.24 in change, 7 wheat cents, and a Canadian cent round out the rest of the coins.

Very Nice!!!! Congrats!!!! It took Me from 1990 to last year to hit My first Franklin! Then I ended up finding two last year for the only two I've ever found!
 

Nice group of finds, well done! I've only found 1 Franklin in 30+ years, fewest of every other type of half- elusive SOB's.
 

Nice finds!! Congrats!
 

Looks like you had yourself a great day! Love it when good ole Uncle Benny makes an appearance.
 

Excellent hunt
 

Good finds, congrats! You must have been close to RR tracks with all those flattened coins?

It was a two location hunt. The first part was close to a RR track, but, after 15-20 minutes and finding junk and flattened coins, I gave up and went elsewhere.
 

Wow...that was a great walk...congrats !!
