I have been frequenting a local flea market for a while now and finally got friendly with the manager who allows me to detect the property. The one great thing about flea markets is that the finds are replenished 3 times a week.
I can't believe the array of items I got on today's 3 hour hunt. I wanted to stay out longer but it was much to hot and humid, besides I was almost out of water. I can't believe that I had 6 bottles of water in that short period.
Most of the clad coins including the SB Anthony dollar were found in the parking lot. I always search both sides of the tables and see what goodies were left behind. Today was an 1898 Quarter, not in great shape, but still the first silver quarter I found.
It must have been dropped by a vendor I guess.
Also found what appears to be a civil bullet, again probably dropped by a vendor.
Anyway at least I have a little piece of history and $2.72 in clad.
Thanks for reading and happy hunting!
