Generous local park

[Bamasteve]

The local park I’ve been visiting was very generous this morning. Found my oldest coin to date, an 1846? Large cent!
Now I’ve gotta figure out whether it’s a small, medium, or large date and the best way to preserve it. Gonna be a busy afternoon.

It’s a shame that public areas have been designated no-go zones for us either through ignorance by lawmakers or disrespect by some who have not been good stewards of the lands that are supposed to be available to all of us.
