I'll let you judge.

I wandered the mansion again today. Pickings are extremely slim! I'm just trying to hit those little pockets now, the ones that one might tend to skip over when trying to cover a lot of ground initially. :)

I recall seeing these fine toothed steel combs but I've forgotten their purpose. :dontknow:

Hinge of some sort.

No clue about this hunk of metal. It does have the letters "IDE" on it. :dontknow:

Even my driver showed up without my ride. ;)

Did find a coin though. Back was pretty toasted.

But, praise the small blessings, I don't have to wonder about just
one more blank looking slug in my collection. You know, the one you
always wonder about. What could it be? ??? :icon_scratch:

This one's obverse had enough info for me to feel pretty confident in
saying that this is an 1803 half cent. My first half cent!

One more off my bucket list. :)

Since I couldn't see much on the reverse I had to rely a bit on deductive reasoning.
But, the size and weight do appear to be about right. It was worn quite a bit. :dontknow:

How about that, 210 years old! I love this hobby! :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Any day dirt fishing is a good day, but when you find a coin like this, it's a great day. Congratulations.
 

Has the park been pounded for years, if so then just one old coin found by you were others have missed, that would make me feel good....
 

What a bad day you had....... I can only pray for a day like that! Congrats!!!!!! :icon_thumright:
 

It's been awhile since I have said WOW my friend what a great find
 

A half cent is always a winner, nice finds. :hello2:
 

Looks like the 1/2 cent made it all worth while! Congrats,HH

Yeah, it is and it has been! Your name came up a couple times in my posts though. So, absent but not forgotten. ;)

Thanks!
