sitting here today with a splitting headache and the kids playing the gamecube was making it worse so i decided to go outside for a bit.....went across the street and got under the bleachers for about a half hour......found $2.94 in clad and this little change purse.....couldnt get it to open so i stuck it in my pocket and kept hunting...when i got home i took a box cutter and sliced it open to get the clad out so i could add up my totals.....lo and behold...not 1 clad coin in there.....1 '50 silver washington (my first silver quarter), 2 mercs 36 and 43, 1944 nickel, 2 buffalos too cruddy to see the date, 3 wheats 1 unknown and 1950, and 52...and one rusty piece of crap i can only assume is a 43 steel so all in all not a bad day.....oh yeah my headache got a little worse there for a minute when my heart started racing and my blood pressure hit the ceiling lol....its ok now tho
thx for looking

Great find in my book. I remember that type of coin purse and ever now and then someone on TN finds one. I'm still waiting for my first. Saw them often up until the late 60's.

Hey Hollow,
That's a sort a nice cache you found. Would make my headache go away very quickly.
I used to have one of those little coin holders, it is amazing the stuff you found in them
Way to go!!
 
Great job! Now I think I know what my rusty penny is, or most of a rusty penny. Thanks for sharing.
 
What a nice surprise you got.. WTG
 
Did they have bleachers back then?? :D Must be a pretty old area! And right across from you? You're in a PRIME location!

WTG Marty, hope you find more at that site.

they are going to be relocating the football stadium in the next year or so.....when they tear the bleachers down im really gonna hit it hard... without all the metal supports giving false signals
