Had PA SLUETH meet in town today.
Was going to a old spot that I have pounded, with a bunch of guys from Tnet. Treblehunter, Scrappy, old dude, Cjon. Just to name a few..lol
But almost every time I go something special comes out.
Today was no different.
Got to tell ya though, Sleuth was not to excited to go. Lol
As you see from his post, that changed.
I found the 1824 LC 5 feet from Sleuths KG1, its funny my coin is 100 years newer and a hole lot worn..
I also found a super cool metal, that is actually the first credit card ever.
Its from JOHN WANAMAKERS.
The first department store here in Philadelphia. They would give you this metal with the numbers on it and you would show it when buying things. The keeped a record of what you bought and you would have to pay at the end of the month..
I dont who remembers the John Wanamakers badge I found a couple of months ago but this is beginning to be a nice collection of his stuff.
I will post a pic of the badge again.
And yes, I found another Capped bust coin..lol This one only be 10 cents..lol.
Man oh man the luck I have been having????
I think Im going to Vegas this weekend! ! Haha.
Thanks for looking.
Ps, I think I was more excited for Sleuth then me today..
George

Dang George - you're killing us man. It's been a long time since I've seen a digger on a roll like this. But enjoy it while it lasts as I'm sure between now and next spring you'll have one disappointing day .... maybe. All that said, congrats on recovering some cool and unique finds. That Wanamaker piece and the story behind it is awesome. Just keep 'em coming buddy ....
