As I have mentioned before, I've never found the big$$$$ stuff but I have found some interesting stuff. You folks keep encourging me to post it so....Here is some car stuff:

1.Reo hub cap, would have been a big signal but it was sitting on top of the ground. Had a hard time locating it as I was using it to hold wheatbacks. I like the Essex Motor emblem. The quarter I found in my car seat.

2. I have found 150+ matchbox car once in a while I've found a few pre-match box car. I bet those kids were far more upset then those who bury their match box cars at the beach. The last car is a jack knife.

3. Those of you from Maine know about these tags (if your old enough). Every year you got a metal tag to attach to your license plate. I guess the State realized how easy it was to switch it back and forth between Ma and PA 's Car.

Would you like me to sing "I'm gonna keep on lovin you....." I don't know what else REO speedwagon sang.... Great finds!
 

ok if nobody else is going to say it, i will "aren't you a little old to be using a car seat" ::),

nice finds, i like the cars. have you ever hunted on the eastern promanade on the hillside or near the monument seems like there'd be a few coins there ;)
 

Very Nice ! I like those tabs .
 

Neet Finds!!! Love that little yellow truck, I haven't seen a tootsie toy like that one since I was a kid...
Good luck & Happy hunting~

Cool finds. I love the touring car.

The REO hub cap is nice. Any idea what era the hub cap is from? Looks a little art decoish to me so maybe '30s? The same man that founded REO put his name on the Oldsmobile.
