Charles Lindbergh "Boy Filght Commander" Badge!

[Cool Hand Fluke]

Last night I was able to get in a hunt just before the big rain storm hit the bay area. It was a little frustrating digging 9 wheat pennies with no silver.
But I dud dig up a neat relic! It's a Charles Lindbergh "Boy Flight Commander" badge! It depicts the famous flight in 1927, it shows the famous " Spirit of St. Louis
airplane! This badge pretty much saved my day!

Looks like a fun hunt to me.

But be careful! The Q-36 explosive space modulator might be buried near by!
